HELP:: Sport's Mode on the Cayenne S
#1
![Question](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Guys, just got an 04 Cayenne S blk/blk. I love it.
But there is a problem. My dad said if you put the car in SPORT'S MODE , you must use the Tiptronic buttuns to shift or the car will have problems.
I think his wrong. I never heard that before. Plus I hate using the buttuns. What do you guys think??

Not sure what you mean by sport mode- turning off the PSM? If so, it still shifts itself, it just starts out in 1st and shifts at higher shift points. The sport mode with PASM has nothing to do with shifting...

having it in "manual" mode won't hurt it. Since you don't like shifting with the buttons, i guess you prefer using the shift ****. That won't hurt it.

IMHO, it is a feature that should be put in all their vehicles.. more people would probably opt for automatic if the automatic/manual transmission in the 911, Boxster and Cayman worked like the Cayenne.. are you listening PAG more $$$

HOWEVER on the Cayenne.. when you pull it over to the left (manual) then both the tiptronic on the steering wheel can be used AND you can use the auto trans. selector like a stick shift -- i.e. pushing it forward advances the drivetrain one gear.. pulling it to the rear, shifts the transmission down a gear..

Now, you're a new user of the forum... and not to be "harsh"... but I've always wanted to use this icon.. and, I'm a little surprised at the questions.. the best place to get the answer is your vehicle's manual.. in fact, it is pretty good reference book.. not great but pretty good.. READ it, there is a lot of good info.. and finally... uh-hum..................
