Hello,
I just got my 6c GTI, and Iam wondering, if there is any point using the sport button, and DSG in Sport mode together?
Or if I turn on the sport button is it automatically puts my DSG into sport? Or, what happens if I activate the sport button but leave DSG in normal mode?
Thanks

The support button will only affect the suspension

I had the Sports Performance Pack in my 6c Polo GTI - usually just referred to as the Sport button.primob0lan wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 1:07 am Hello,

As well as making the suspension firmer, from memory it also increased the volume of fake engine noise pumped into the car’s cabin, sharpened up the steering, and increased the responsiveness of the accelerator pedal.
I only used Sport mode a few times in 4.5 years of ownership as I found the suspension setting much too firm for everyday use. It would have been good to be able to use just specific features of the Sport Performance Pack rather than it being ‘all or nothing’ - I would have quite liked to have had the benefit of the sharper steering and increase responsiveness of the accelerator, but not the firm suspension or increased fake engine noise.
