Hello - I am a newbie and have a question about the use of the Sport Drive vs. Drive in regular driving, both around town and Interstate. Can I use Sport Drive all the time, or should I switch back and forth for different driving conditions?

Thanks - great forum!

... None :S
Use whichever you like more. Drive may give you a bit better fuel economy. Sport won't hurt anything.

Alternate back and forth to your heart's content. I normally use D on the highway, and while my car is warming up, and use S in town and on highway access ramps.

I alternate between Drive and Tiptronic (manual shift). Use whatever mode or combination of modes makes you happy. :)
