PTM Choices
Just curious as I don’t have my car yet and haven’t dug deep into the PTM settings, what people are selecting for spirited / aggressive street driving? Any info / feedback is much appreciated

First off you have to be in Track mode to get to the PTM menu. I rarely use it. Really dont want to end up in the ditch with a wrecked car. (loss of nannies)
I did try the PTM sport 2 dry...it did definitely changed the shifting of the A10 and kept the revs up. When I had the M6 car, didnt really notice a whole lot of difference.

Sport 1. Everytime I drive unless it's cold out and then I run dry. You still have stability control, so no you won't end up in the ditch.

In Canada, you might want to watch the weather temps on stock tires before disabling the nannies enough to get to PTM.

There are 4 modes to the e-diff depending on modes. The PTM modes allow more nimble turn-in and less lockup to get you around the corners faster. Outside of the PTM modes, the e-diff. main focus is stability. It is for this reason that I use PTM Sport 1 for any spirited driving with turns.

I can tell you that if it's raining you want to drive in the snow/wet PTM setting. Sport is the wrong setting for rain or wet roads.

Strongly agree. Almost crashed on power delivery in sport mode. The car is very stable in the rain setting regardless of what you do.
