What can be configured and what are the possible combinations?
I saw that you can set the sport+ mode but on the console there is only the sport button, how can you switch to sport+? Sorry for the stupid questions but the cars here have not been delivered to the dealers yet. |

If you press the sport button the center display has three choices, sport, sport+, and sport individual.
On sport individual you can select settings for damping, steering, engine, and transmission, either comfort or sport. |

Everything set to sport except the suspension. Roads in Colorado are rough.

I'm this way as well - holds the rpm a little too high before shifting. If you're just commuting, it becomes a little annoying and just wasting gas a lot of the time.
Also, when in a sporty mood, using the paddles is more fun anyways, which bypasses the transmission setting as far as I know. |

I run Sport Plus everything apart from steering and suspension. Feel like sport steering is unnecessarily heavy - steering feel actually better in comfort IMO.
Roads in the uk are so bad that driving in anything other than comfort is pointless. |

why not?? Because i can shift manually whenever I want. Don't need the auto transmission to be more aggressive and burn fuel when I'm driving casually. Simple as that

What's the difference between sport engine and sport transmission. I want the sportiest feeling higher fuel efficiency. So I was thinking Sport - steering Sport - engine Comfort - transmission But does sport engine do something that would use more fuel. My guess is yes?! |

Sport everything except steering in comfort. Also using the paddles during the run-in period to vary the RPM's, can't wait until I can use launch control!!! Half way there.
