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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hi, does anyone know if the shift light function (available if you bought sports chrono on Gt4) can be purchased separately from OPC? I read on RL that it was possible to do so in Germany. anyone tried? tks

POST 2Original post

I've got SC and haven't noticed the shift light... Unless it's on that Gear Change Assist thingy??

POST 3Original post

Phooey said: I've got SC and haven't noticed the shift light... Unless it's on that Gear Change Assist thingy?? I think he means the little triangle which appears on the right side of the gear number display in the centre of rev counter. Dont know if it can be added later.

POST 4Original post

I've got it on mine and haven't got SC.

POST 5Original post

[troll mode] Standard on all Lotus Evoras [/troll mode] Mickey taking aside, I would have thought it was standard on the GT4, I am sure the OPC told me it was, just before they told me I couldn't order one and would I like a GTS instead.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i meant the gear shift assist menu (which comes with sports chrono). can we retrofit that? I missed the old shift lights in the GT3 so much easier and free....

POST 7Original post

It is probably just software although the that doesn't mean the dealer will/can enable it for you. The G-Meter and display that come with the Chrono pack are definitely just software as the same sensor info is available on the PCM without. I would guess no extra hardware at all is needed for the shift light or downshift blip either.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
