Title: Snow mode
Post by: polskifacet on December 12, 2016, 12:36:44 AM
Hey guys. There is a way to start in second gear which is pretty sweet for snow driving. You put it in Sport and when at a complete stop, it lets you put it in second. Another thing I noticed while having the car in this mode, I think it has some roll back feature because when on a hill in second, it completely stops the car from rolling back which isn't true in first gear. I thought this was wild! Who else feels like testing this ?!?!?

Are you sure it doesn't do the anti roll back in 1st? Usually that function is in the ABS brake system...It hold hydraulic pressure for a couple seconds.

And yeah the lowest gear to start is a function available in the tune...You could set it to whatever you want but anything above 2nd would be pretty useless in the SHO...In the truck tunes it is set to allow 3rd gear starts because they have a transfer case that makes 3rd like 1st gear.
