Is it possible to set the gearbox (computer) to the sport mode, but then using the "D" instead of the "S".

Now the gearbox goes to 1,2, and 3 but the 4th gear isn't available in S.
What I want is to use the "S" way of shifting but then in "D"

The D program is very lazy and the S-mode comes more to my kind of shifting, but Im missing the last gear.

Greetings,

Pascal

P=park- stop car
R=reverse- drive backwards
N=neutral-free rev engine
D=drive-this is the normal driving position, and the transmission will automatically shift through a four gear sequence, providing best econmy and power.
S=second-Manually shift the selector lever to this position for driving in heavy traffic slow moving traffic, when climbimg hills or for brake assit on steep descents.
L=low-Shift the selector lever to this position in hard puliing situations and for climbimg very steep grades.

D = 1st, 2nd 3rd, 4th
S = 1st, 2nd, 3rd
L = 1st, 2nd


To select between economy and power mode, press the econo/power button in front of the selector.
