However, there have been articles in the past stating that the threshold for intervention of AH is higher in Comp mode. I have no sources (yet) to back this up, and indeed it may be false.

I don't have time to find the article now but AH does allow more in comp mode. When I get back I'll attempt to find the documents.

with Shurite44 on this.Do you think that TC and AH are one in the same??? Surely not. SO why wouldn't TC off and AH on be a different mode than both on or both off?

b) TC being off implies EVERYTHING is off, ie tapping the button once.
c) Competition mode, ie tapping it twice in the C6, leaves TC off/AH on.

Second press and release = Comp. Mode. (T/C off, A/H still on, reduced interference?)
Third press and HOLD = T/C and A/H off.
If by your assumption both T/C & A/H are off in T/C of Mode then why would there be a third function that states both are off?
Nice save on changing your profile. Maybe the Z06 is different than the C6.

What is the default mode? The way I read your post then there should be 4 modes, Default, 1 press, 2 press, press and hold.
Am I reading that correctly? My question is when you start the C6 what mode is it in?
