Weird - Paddle shifter oddity

Something weird is going on with my gear display and paddle shifters. The last time I used my paddle shifters, I would get a readout that would say: S1, S2, S3..., however, now I'm getting: M1, M2, M3... Anyone else have this issue? It also seems that the car wont give me complete control of the gears. I know there is a threshold built in, it isn't that. Maybe I'm just imagining that part? Anyway, the readout is definitely different. I'm going to check the book when I get out of work, but I thought I'd ask.

It should never say S1, S2, S3, etc I think. I only get the Ms for Manual.

Ok, I must've been imagining the "S."

Maybe on the crack...

Wait, aren't you the one contemplating buying an xB over a Fit? And I'm on crack? I don't even want to know what you're on then.

Also kidding.

You were probably thinking of the "S" displayed in the gear selection column. M1, M2, etc always display once the paddles are engaged...

It's possible...I'll consider it a perception problem on my part until someone else says they've seen it too. Thought it worth checking just in case.

Actually, I think it's just the number of the gear (1, 2, etc.) if you're in "D" mode. You only get the M1, M2, etc. if you're in "S" mode.

Nothing displays in that window when you are in drive or sport mode until you engage the paddles.

And what's wrong with crack? As long as it's at the top end of some fine french lengerie (bras or panties).

Can I get an Amen?????
