Hi guys, had a quick question-
When I start up my car, its in D and SMG setting is always at 1-bar. This makes my starting usually from Gear # 2. Is there a way I could change that default to say 2-bars so that atleast my start gear is always Gear 1??
Any suggestions?!?!

Well, the car should memorize your last setting before switching off the car. My default is always D1, but when I use the paddle shifters, and increase shift levels, it starts at the same settings!

Designo, the settings of the gear aggression level does not remain after shutting down --> restarting. Is there any setting that I need to enable/disable in the iDrive to get this option? I would like to start with 2 bars, instead of just 1 bar.
Any clues?

Designo, Hahhaa- nah thats not my dash. Mine has 16400Km on it. The one I posted here I d/loaded from the net only for purpose of indicating what I meant to show you. When I start the car, it does remember either D or 1. However, it does not remember clutch setting and the default clutch setting it starts with is single-bar.
