Default Question about dash display

Ok, I haven't played around with this very much but I was wondering when you put the car into 'competition mode' and it is displayed on the dash is there any way you can leave it in that mode and switch the display to read say oil temp?

The only way I can seem to get the car to display other gage info is by leaving it in the normal mode with ASR and TC on.

Seems kinda dumb that you can not see oil temp while in comp. mode.

Am I just missing something here?

You should be able to hit the RESET button to clear the message and use the other buttons to view various readings.

Are you also asking whether or not the car remains in 'competition mode'? I believe it would remain on until you hit the AH button again, but I could be wrong as I have not experimented much with this either. :cheers:

He's right about the reset button. Push it and the competition mode display
goes away. It will stay in competition mode until you press the traction control
button again or you restart the car.
