No sport+ in my car
I am not sure if this is normal but my car doesn't have sport+ mode in dynamic driving selection. It has only Eco pro, comfort and sport.
I have m sport package w/o sport auto ($500 option). Could it be the reason? I test drove a basic non sport 3 series GT but it did have Sport+ option. Strange. Any advise. Thanks. |

From the LCI this year you are not able to order the SAT with 518d, 520d and 520i (but you can get paddles with the ordinary AT), and thus you won´t get the Sport+. But would you still get Sport+ if you order EDC with this step-in models?

I don't know; I would think likely so. In the US market, at least, Sport+ is nothing more than Sport mode with the added suppression of DSC -- and all the cars have a separate switch for that, so the Sport+ mode isn't anything special, as far as I can see.

Yeah, I don't feel like I'm missing anything that I would ever use anyway.

Only when the drivetrain is left unchecked, does Sport+ change the configuration from the Sport setting, as it puts the gearbox into the sport program. HighlandPete |

If you're in sport+ and manual gear mode, it will not shift up even if you're on the engine rev limiter.

My previous F11 520d pre-LCI had the sports auto and there is quite a difference between the two gearboxes. I would still have wanted the sports auto in my new car.

Sport+ turns off DSC, turns on DTC, and as stated above turns off the automatic upshifts in manual mode. In 2014 it's also used for launch control.
