Curious about the functionality of the driving modes on the MK7 DSG.
When I select Sport mode by using the button next to the shifter, I can feel the shift points change in addition to the tighter feel on the steering and the extra engine noise. I usually keep it in Sport mode and I like the way the car maintains that setting even after the ignition is turned off and back on.
However, when I'm driving in Sport mode for a little while it seems to lose the higher shift points. I thought I was just getting used to it, but when I pull the shifter down to select Sport mode (which has already been selected by the button), it seems like it kicks it back into Sport, and it revs back up.
Anybody else experience this? This is my 2nd MK7 with a DSG and my last one did the same thing. It makes me wonder if it's holding the sport mode or if it reverts back to normal, even though sport is still selected.
I hope that makes sense. I checked there manual and I don't think I've missed anything. I'm not sure anything is actually wrong since this is my second one to do the same thing, I'm more curious about how it works and how I can ensure it's staying in Sport mode.
