Nope, I like the difference between DS and Sport too but if you imagine that DS is like Sport with it fitted and then the change to Sport is another step up, that is what it is like. Off the mark, it gets the power in quicker and when overtaking the response and down shift are quicker and stronger.


I too was sceptical when I thought about getting one for my old AMG SLK32 but that is what convinced me to get it on the 335d too. It does make a difference and its NOT the same as "mashing the throttle" see if you can find someone with one fitted and you will see what I mean. I wouldn't buy one for a manual gearbox but for an Auto, I would buy one every day of the week
