997.1 TT Tiptronic steering wheel buttons
I purchased my car not too long ago and I noticed my tiptronic steering wheel buttons always work even when I'm in regular D mode.
It is this normal?

Yes. Mine do the same.

Yes, it's normal. If you're in Drive and press for upshift or downshift, the car switches to manual (you'll notice red dots in front of both D and M in your cluster) for a few seconds. It then switches back to fully automatic on its own if you stop using the buttons / paddles (I think it stays in that manual mode longer if you're above a certain rev range, but can't find the exact details).
