Sport mode on MY15 V8V MT

Hello,


I'm new for this brand. In MY2015 V8V MT, When the sport button was pressed, Button's LED on and I felt the exhaust bypass valve open sooner at 3K rpm rather than 4K rpm as in normal mode. But there was no "SPORT" symbol appeared on cluster.

Is this normal or something wrong? Because in car's manual said that "When sport mode is on, SPORT will show in the message centre".



Thanks in advance.
Vorapat

Have the identical 2014 model. Just checked and there's no indicator on the dash readouts (just the LED on the button). Fabulous feature really changes the throttle response.

If you read the manual carefully, you will see that the "Sport" text in the message center is only displayed on cars with SportShift transmissions.

Thanks for the answer both of you guys.
According to the manual,
In cluster section, It shows that manual tranmission's cluster don't have "SPORT" text in message center.
But, In Manual tranmission section,It indicates that the "SPORT" will show in cluster when function is activated.
So, I've been confused ever since.
