OK... here's the real deal. I'm sure most already knew this but a couple of us got confused and needed to make sure...
In M (sport mode) it starts out in 1st every time... whether you have been driving around in M or just pulled it back to M.
- If you are sitting Stopped. Shift to D then back to M.
- Then tap the left shift and DIC will show M1 because it had no room to downshift.
- Shift back to D then back to M again (reset)
- Then tap the right button DIC shows M2 because it DID initiate a shift from 1st to 2nd
Drive around in M and come to a stop. Take off and count the shifts 1, 2, 3 then hit the right tap and it will go to M4.
Bottom line is any way you try it M (sport mode) always takes off in 1st (as it should be)
D will always take off in 2nd.
End of thread... go forth and be happy...
