ok i have had a service car runs beutifully now, really smooth and more responsive again. got bilstein? shocks at the back cornering is 100x better now.

electrical problem seems to dissapeared (crosses fingers)

only problem i have now is that the car seems to stutter into 2nd and 3rd sometimes....is this a problem with my clutch???

almost forgot to mention this is only when im accelerating hard.

this would also happen to me, but I had just replaced my clutch and had a machine shop machine the flywheel (bad idea) - the shuttering was the bolts on the flywheel hitting the clutch disk - also because they machined it wrong the cluch wore out after about 5 months. How old is the clutch that you have, may be time to get a new one. - If you do have to get a new, Go aftermarket much cheaper (aka. stock flywheel was $780 or something) got whole aftermaket M3 setup for just under 1K$ including LW Flywheel make a big difference.
