Dan_W Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 We bought our 2012 Q5 Quattro S-Line Auto about 6weeks ago. We love it. It quickly showed up a fault though, when it started not reversing properly. Short story and not uncommon, it needed a new clutch. We finally got it back about a week ago and I've just realised that I can't toggle between "Drive" and "Sport" modes. I could before and but since the work I can't. Clearly it is not a "mechanical" issue as such because the minimal travel on the gear stick suggests it is just a switch which changes the gearbox and engine mapping. Other than this it is driving absolutely perfectly, I'm just missing a mode. Obviously it will be going back to the garage that did the work but does anyone have any idea what may have caused this so I'm a little more informed. Perhaps there's a really simple fix I can do at home? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammie1982 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Yo Dan, The only thing i can think of off the top of my head is that theres a mechanical issue between the selector switch and the gear selector in the cabin. maybe one of the cables is slightly chewed up or routed in a way thats restricting it. but i when you look at these images, anyone that understands this fully..... amazes me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
