I would agree for open road driving but in stop start traffic in town I switch it off to reduce the higher tick over speed and more sensitive throttle response.mxvx wrote: I don't like the throttle response with it switched off at all.

I think I heard someone peep and I wondered why they were peeping at me

Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Higher tick over speed? Never noticed the difference with it on or off. Probably because I switch it on immediately. More sensitive throttle response in town is easier for me...j2 lot wrote:I would agree for open road driving but in stop start traffic in town I switch it off to reduce the higher tick over speed and more sensitive throttle response.mxvx wrote: I don't like the throttle response with it switched off at all.

Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Mine idles at maybe 600-700rpm normally and over 1000 with sport mode on.

Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Curious. Sport mode makes zero difference to my idle. Changes throttle response etc but not idle.
So who's is broken then ?!?! lol

Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Select sport mode and my idle speed increases too, wonder if it's only on later SR models ?
Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Mine idles same regardless of mode. Air con may sometimes lift the idle a touch but not to 1k rpm.

Scotsdaveed - Leather all over the sill and on the back seats means premium pack. Depending on build date it might also have heated seats. Think 11 plate cars usually do.
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

Re: Grey Evora Dalgety Bay
Cheers Martin, I just assumed that was normal. I thought the premium back was just a leather trim in the center of the rear seats and dash.
Can the TPMS be retro fitted by just plugging the module in to the boot (I know the valves need installed in the wheels) or does it need enabled in the ECU like the cruise control?

Picked the Evora up tonight. What a car!
Fast, comfortable and refined. The wee one loves it too even though she didn't want to get rid of the Elise.
