I've tried it out, and all it seems to do is : change the shift points so that the car will downshift without putting the : gas pedal down as far. : Are there any other benifits to sport mode? It changes the shift points. That's pretty much all it does. : I've found that when I'm in sport mode, and I I'm not careful, I'll put my : foot down too far(well, not all that far either), and the car will jump into : a lower gear, this startles me :-o, so I let my foot off the gas and it goes : back into the higher gear... all this jumping around of gears can't be good : either. : What are your views? My car is a naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder, and I find the sport mode preferable unless I'm on the highway. I've never had it downshift on me when I didn't want it to. -- agreenbu Return to Main Index
