A6 Manual Shift Question
I have just recently purchased a 2013 Grand Sport with AT. Previous 7 Corvettes have been MT. Read section in manual regarding paddle shift operation. Manual states that when in manual operation while in Sport Mode, manual gear selection will display in DIC. My GS shows manual gear selection in HUD only. I have put apprx 1,000 miles on the vehicle and did see the gear selection appear in the DIC on one occasion for just a few seconds. Just want to insure that there are no electrical issues with the vehicle. Does the manual gear show in the HUD only or should gear show on both HUD and DIC?

HUD is the priority option but in some situations it is necessary to use the DIC. Depends on what mode the HUD is set to and other factors like the NAV is operating.
Yours is normal. Play around with the HUD options and see the difference.

Thank you for the quick replies and good news. It appears that the displays are operating normally. This forum certainly provides corvette owners with a great source for information.
