sport mode question
I feel the sport mode of my gls580 not in proper setting for both throttle and suspension response. I noticed a message stating "not with roof load". not sure if this message always there as a general warning or a malfunction. of course, I don't have anything on the roof. can any one confirm?

As far as I know, it’s just a general warning that the sport setting will be affected by any weight on top of the car and not perform as expected.

Just a safety warning, similar to seat belt chimes, etc.

The message is always there. There are no sensors on the roof as far as I know.
