Sorry, but what is 'sport mode'? I feel like i've done quite a bit of research, but this is the first i've heard of it.

 

sport mode holds the car in gear longer before up shifting.. blows more gas but is more fun

 

Agree...sport mode helps keep the engine's response time shorter. The stock 1.8T B6 can be a dog on acceleration but the car is above average in so many other ways. If the only thing noticed about the B6 is the slow acceleration,the point of the whole overall driving experience of the car was missed.

 

Like I said earlier, I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something wrong with it.

BTW, how do you put it into sport mode? I never noticed a button or anything on my test drives.

 

Or you could just use the Tip and tell the car how long YOU want to wind out the gears!

 

The transmission is in Sport Mode by placingthe shifterin "S" which is right after the "D".
