Setting to always start car in S mode?
I've tried looking through the forums, but am unable to find an answer.

Is there a setting or some other way to have your car always start in S mode?

You can't, it will always reset back to C. Some say if you shut off in M mode it will go to S on the next start, but I tried it and it didn't work.

Same here 2009. But for some reason the "S" quickly turns to an "M"....varoom.

2009 for me, stays in S if turned off in S, stays in C if turned off in C. However, when you turn it off in M it goes to C. :\

I recently discovered after my wife has been driving the car it was starting up in S mode. Hmm...

I've been wanting this for the traction control too. It's goes off everytime I get in it. Wish it could just default to off on startup.
