So after reading in a previous thread that it was possible to change the default settings to sport mode on and sport exhaust on I took my car to dealer today to have them attempt this and they were unable to accomplish. Is there anyone that can offer any more detailed info on what settings need to be altered and how that I could forward to my dealer? It seems trivial, but if I didn't have to push those 2 buttons every time I got into my car it would make me enjoy it that much more. Thanks

 

My dealer also didn´t find this Option to turn the Sport exhaust on as Default. (Germany/Europe)


my car has a retrofit Sport exhaust, is Modell 1/2012 and a v6 panamera 4.
Maybe someone could help me, thank you!

 

I've talked to 2 dealers here in Chicago and both say it cannot be done - that's why I was hoping the person who posted something saying it had been done on their car would respond, but no such luck. I'm questioning whether they really accomplished it.

 

This is exactly what I've been looking for. I'd like to hear if anyone has accomplished this. If not, it's something Porsche should consider. Seems like a pretty simple feature.

I've never understood the defaults on the 911. The AC is "ON" and there's a button to turn it "off". Meanwhile, my sports car is normally in a throttled down throttle state that I have to push a button to correct. Even odder is the sport exhaust that instead of a button to push for "silenced mode, I'm coming home late at night", it's normally in the quiet state and I push the "I'm feeling like a *^#^, let's crank it up" button. Makes no sense.

 

This may work for Panamera as well.
