I can confirm that on the version of software mine is on, when I have the setting enabled and the car was on the MyMode setting last time I stopped it will start in normal then change to my mode shortly after that.

They released a new software version but I haven’t installed it yet.
Just installed it. Last mode setting doesn't seem to incorporate MyMode.

What version are you currently on
Not sure. I got a notification in april 2020 about an update available for v1.12 but I can’t remember if I updated it. Then another notification for v1.13 in March this year and I definitely didn’t do that one.

I worked this out. MyMode has to be set to sport plus for it to work. The other settings can be whatver you want for MyMode. Here's a demo of the auto switch. I did nothing but start the car.

Yes, it appears it does go into MyMode if Sports+ was the options chosen. This doesn't work for me, which is interesting because your video shows the opposite. For me, (probably because I have Magneride), if I choose Sport+ it automatically goes goes to Sport steering and Sport suspension. There is no ability to change the steering like in normal mode and I prefer the normal suspension and steering (which appears only available for me in normal mode, or my own MyMode that doesn't work automatically with the SmartTop. Yours appears to have the Sport+ throttle, but comfort steering which is interesting!

Then it must be because you can't change the steering and exhaust settings when your're in sport plus and not because of of the module. Just to be clear on how I did this:

1) Make sure my mode settings are displayed on the dash
2) Change to Sport + mode with the dash toggle switch
3) Changed steering mode to what I wanted with the dash toggle switch
4) Changed the exhaust to what I wanted in the exhaust settings
5) Press and hold to save to my mode
6) Change to my mode with the dash toggle switch and leave it there

Now mine starts and changes to my mode with those settings like in the vid.

Yes I replicated those same steps and it worked, but not the “mode” Im looking for. It must be because I have the magneride that I can’t change the steering in sport+ but you can. Interesting.

I returned my car to stock and sold it so I have the module I was using available. $200 shipped if anyone is interested.
