How often do you drive in the sports mode?

[y5choi]

Always. I can't turn it off. ... (Canadian sports package spec).

I love the ride, not your grandfather merc or cadillac supple pillowy ride but it keeps me young and exciting i'd say.. lol.

Does the sport suspension alter ride height? Tire wear might be affected if the ride height is different with sport suspension due to the camber of the wheels. Or, if the suspension is stiffer, there might be less compression and thus less wear--really depends on the suspension geometry and alignment. Of course, it's hard to tell because when people use sport suspension, they tend to drive more aggressively, resulting in more tire wear.

Far as I know, height is not adjusted. just the stiffness of the front wishbone struts I think. Don't believe the tire wear would be significantly different even if it is true.

the point is, the sport suspension is awesome.

those of you who leave it in sport mode, how much is that impacting your MPG's? my 01 and '04 used to suck the tank dry in sport mode.

All the time, except when taking the family on long trips on straight roads.

[X5audi]

Half the time.

Or, really, when I need it.

I like your taste in vehicles.

Is that an A3 3.2 S-Line?

Forget the Audi. Come to the Lounge and tell us about the Triumph!

I'm gonna test a full tank on sport [button] mode and another full tank without it and come back with mpg results... I sure don't feel much of a ride difference to be honest.
