Difference between sport driving mode and sport transmission mode

[baygti]

Does anyone know the difference? If I have transmission in sport mode but driving mode is in normal, what happens? There's only one "S" that appears when in transmission sport mode. Can't figure out what overrides t the other and what the effect is.

If you are in sports mode without using paddle, then it will shift at redline. Using paddle shifters in sports mode you decide when to shift. Is that what you mean ? ><

I just mean there are 2 sport modes. Which one is which?

Sport driving mode makes it louder and steering heavier. Sport mode on transmission makes it hold gears longer.

If I have this right, Sport MODE will initially put the transmission in sport until you toggle the shift lever to D. Then the shift lever controls the transmission irrespective of the MODE. Even if the transmission is in S, it will default to D if you restart the car, even if the MODE is still in sport. Most stupid feature I've ever seen. I leave my MODE in Individual and set to sport for all parameters except suspension and steering.
