Unusual downshift in auto-sport mode
Ive noticed recently in the garage as im leaving (car isnt fully warmed yet) that the car will shift abruptly from 2nd to first gear. Its almost like a slight jerking - its just not smooth. I saw a post about this in manual mode but has anyone else dealt with this in auto-sport mode?

Reprogram the "cold shifting adaptation"
I have driven other performance cars and you get a hard shift on like a racing clutch when you shift up but not down...
