V4 Mode
I have driven my car in all modes and I understand there should be a light that comes on in the center cluster when the car is in V4 mode. With over 1500 miles on the car , not once have I seen this light, is this correct. I have read on here where you cannot hardly tell when the car switches from V4 to V8. I think the car goes to V4 but I am not 100% postive. If it is just a lamp unpluged I don't know if I want the dealer cracking my dash open just to plug it up. Any thoughts??

You have to be in a certain screen, I know today I was in sport mode with a sub screen that showed how many miles left till needing more gas in that screen you will see a small v4 or v8 readout, its there just look for it, your car is fine you just need to find that screen.
