Switch to force performance shift mode

Torquem · 08-29-2018, 05:17 PM

Curious if anyone has done this yet. Would be cool to be able to put in perf shift mode manually in any setting.

That would be really awesome actually.

The switch us under your right foot.

But people who ask probably don’t know you enter the mod with a quick full pedal down and release....
They will figure after trying ;-)

Yes, but keeping it in that mode on the street is not practical which is why a switch would be cool.

Using temporary go-go pedal switch works just fine for me...only reason I could see needing another hand switch for performance mode would be the rare 'oh crap' wish I wasn't in tour as it will not engage with the pedal even if you just have the suspension setting for tour.

I keep my suspension in Tour and it still activates. You must be in driving modes Sport or Track and go over 30 mph or so or it will not engage. At any other setting or speed too low, the car will just accelerate when you blip the throttle. I'm not certain on the exact speed, but I know it works every time from 40 and above.

Gotcha... I normally set them all independently & not just the suspension from sport or track. Will give it a go.

The loud pedal is the switch!

An independent switch would be nice. I did a hard acceleration run merging onto a road where there were several cars waiting to turn left a few lanes over from me. Car number 2 in that line of cars was a cop. I was in performance shift mode, and when I am trying to slow down after seeing the cop I was coming up on, the car downshifts into second at near redline right as I pass the cop. Pants brown. Good thing that line of cars was waiting to turn down the back road to the police station where the cop was probably going to then go home for the night.

A quick blip of the throttle will put it into performance mode. I've done this at almost any MPH.
