IIRC, UK models have a "Manual" Button AND an "Economy" Button. As you said, their shifter button activates economy mode, but I think they have a manual button where our power button is.

That would make 3 shift maps + manual.

That would make 4 maps Phil, and I don't think so.

Probably what they have done is excluded out POWER mode by the Econ switch in the same way as our JDM model have it wired in.

In other words, when you have Econ switched on, no amount of kickdown will access POWER. It runs the NORMAL map permanently. It will go it's own sluggish way about changing. You would have the advantage of kickdown to first for low speed hard acceleration though.

This raises the possibility that UK car owners could change the wires to that switch, and have their POWER mode on full time.

Interested guys

For a small consideration, I could let you know what colours to switch.......
