Default Going back to Touring mode from Track

As I am sure you guys are aware when you have the car in track and park it the next time you start the car it will be in touring mode.

Is there a setting to make the car stay in track? Every other mode it seems to stay in when parked except track. Took a peek in the manual but didn't see anything.

No, the reasoning is if a different driver gets in it and you've gone nuts on track mode and turned all the nannies off, that different driver could be screwed. So they switch it to Tour by default.

But you can permanently set the steering and exhaust to track. If you don't have MRC, those are the only things different between sport and track.

I have not been able to do this with exhaust. What am I doing wrong?

I think the car has to be running, but:

Select Settings on the Infotainment screen
Choose Driving Mode
Choose Engine Sound Management
Select Track (2015 & 2016) or Off (2014)


Steering is also under driving mode.
