S-Mode Quirks
Does anyone have any issues with their S-Mode during normal driving? Sometimes, but not always, when I disengage the clutch and go to neutral the engine will rev down to about 1500 rpms and hold for a few seconds before going to idle. Yesterday, with S-mode on, I reversed out of the driveway and it reved to 2500rpms on its own! It's starting to get on my nerves so it's switched off at the moment. It just seems to run smoother with S-mode off and less fidgity.
Should I just take it to a dealer and try to replicate the issue? |

it thinks your about to shift so it will hold at a certain rpm when you go into that gear to make it smooth when it figures out u are not switching gears it drops the RPM.... that is SRM

I haven't had a bit of trouble. One can screw with the SR logic, though. SR will hold the rev's you have for a bit waiting to figure out what gate you're going to next. If you stay in neutral, then it gives up and drops to idle (or close). Problem is if you bouce around in neutral near the shift gates, SR will try to match the revs and HOLD them for a few seconds even though you're still in neutral. Be decisive. If you want neutral, put it there and take your hand off the stick. Your mileage, of course, may vary.

No said issues here. Doesn't srm work thru sensors at the entrance of each gear including reverse?

No problems here. When my dad drove the Z I noticed he had a tick/habit from his manual-driving days where he liked to bounce the shifter between his thumb and fingers while in neutral. The SRM didn't like that one bit, haha.

This happens also when just simply pushing the clutch pedal to the floor when rolling up to a stop. 2nd gear at about 2500rpms, push in clutch (still in 2nd gear), revs drop to about 1500rpm for about 3 seconds and then drop to idle. Irritating!! |

Yep, I quickly found that I have/had a habbit of bouncing the shifter off of the spring gate for first and second... got over that quickly! Especially when loitering after coming out of a high gear.

Nobody else with these issues, I don't even know if they are issues...maybe it's just normal behavior?
Maybe one of you can drive around with the SRM turned off and see if you notice any less hesitation with revving down after clutch is disengaged. When mine is off, the revs always quickly drop to idle speed. When turned on, it's hit or miss. |
