Then it's not working or you don't have a keen sense of what's happening in the suspension, as it's more than apparent.

SO, i should feel something whenever i change from tour to sport mode?

Yes, the difference should be noticeable unless your roads are smoother than a pool table.

I went on the track at Watkins Glen once forgetting to take it out of Tour mode. I realized it halfway through turn 1.

On the street, it's very easy to tell the difference by putting a tire onto some rumble strips in the different modes.

read the book, it mentions
TOUR: Use for normal city and
highway driving. The TOUR button
selects a suspension and Electric
Power Steering (EPS) calibration
that provides a smooth, soft ride.
SPORT: Use where road conditions
or personal preference demand
more control. The SPORT button
selects a suspension and EPS
calibration that provides more “feel,”
or response to the road conditions.
The setting can be changed at any
time. Based on road conditions,
steering wheel angle, and the
vehicle speed, the system
automatically adjusts to provide the
best handling while providing a
smooth ride. The Tour and Sport
modes will feel similar on a smooth
road. Select a new setting whenever
driving conditions change.
