Default Have you edited your C7 Sport Mode Pocket Gauges?

OK I know some of you both read and RETAINED all our manuals had to offer but I just ran across how we can edit our pocket gauges to the left and right of our digital dash in Sport mode. This was discussed in one other post that I never saw so I am resurrecting it for those that missed this feature. I clicked to the right after choosing the settings mode on the steering wheel to select the edit gauges and just for fun I put the oil temp and HP gauge to the left and right of the center.

I have never ever had a horse power display on any other car I have owned. If you have never changed these from the default oil pressure and oil temp it may be fun to run your options.......

I have oil pressure on left and trans temp on right. I don't have the HP option, although if I did, I would at least give it a trial period.

I've tried a few different configurations but have settled on the battery reading on the left and the oil temp on the right.

Of course that might change next time I drive it....

Trans temp on the left, oil temp on the right. Trans temp seems to be the only component that gets to redline during long track session on my car..

I did know you had the option to switch them. I kinda wish you could use some of the digetal displays from Track in the Sport display.

I like this set up. It gives me all readings at a glance.

I like that setting also.
But I have a 2016 and it does not display the car in the center.
Instead it shows the speed digitally.
Then when scrolling through the center info, the 5 readings on the right change to the car until I scroll back to the speed

Didn't know about the HP gage on the later models, 2014 does not have it. When I get my new 2017 at the end of the month I will give it a try.
