Even in Auto setting on the PDK kearstick, using the Sports mode button would advance timing, raise idle and cause more backfires with fuelling the exhaust.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have just bought a 991S with PDK and sports chrono and it's amazing, so pleased with it. Having never driven a PDK before I have a question relating to the sports chrono function. When i press sport or sport plus mode it totally transform the car from the standard mode, which in comparison feels a bit lazy and much less sporty. My question is in a car without sports chrono is that it? The car stays in the comfort mode all the time unless you go into manual? Don't get me wrong, its fine in standard mode for the motorway or around town but the sport and sport plus modes turn it into another car altogether and I would be gutted if that was it all the time.

POST 2Original post

My old 718S was without SportsChrono, and still has a Sports mode button (but no Sports Plus mode button) Even in Auto setting on the PDK kearstick, using the Sports mode button would advance timing, raise idle and cause more backfires with fuelling the exhaust. It sharpened the throttle response, but did not have the active gearbox / engine mounts that come with Sports chrono. Sports Chrono adds PADM, even more aggressive shifts/ mapping over and above Sports setting, and gives you launch control function AFAIK You don’t get the funky each chronometer if you don’t have SC option Edited by elan362 on Friday 22 March 11:29

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you for the reply, that makes sense. I wasn't aware that they still had the sport mode button without sports chrono. So really you're 9nly missing out on sports plus which is a bit much unless you are really on it.

POST 4Original post

Sports+ is generally designed for the track, but cars fitted with it will have the analogue clock built into / on top of the centre dash depending on the generation so it can also be an aesthetics reason that many option it.
