Question about downshifting and S+
Two questions...
1. What exactly is the difference between S and S+? I can notice the difference between C and S in terms of shifting and not much else, but can't tell the different between S and S+.
2. How do you get those crackles and pops on automatic downshifts? I try as much as possible to coast to a stop, so either get the engine at a low RPM on a higher gear or the engine yelling at a high RPM on a lower gear when I lift off the gas. Do I have to hit the brakes hard to get those aggressive downshifts?

Strong braking will will make the car downshift at higher rpms on S+, so this will produce what you want. Or just downshift yourself at a high rpm.
