Haha.. I know the feels.. Which is why I always recommend those who want the 2.0 to never test the other engines cuz if you do, the difference in power delivery is instantly noticeable.. We almost got the 2.0 GLS cuz can remap later plus it's sufficient for city driving (we being city people).. Unfortunately or fortunately, after a single back to back test drive. We knew, we had to spring for the diesel.

It's basically in sports mode all the time. But without the whiny high revving sounds of the petrol engine.. Just be sure to scout out Euro 5 stations around you or along regular routes.
Quite possible..

.. I do know that there are after market remapping + mods that can be done to any of the engines to boost performance and fc.. Not stickers yeah..

.. Of course, best to wait till after warranty for such.
On another note, I believe I've figured out the Auto display and instruments cluster lighting issue. There's a thin stalk beside the info lcd, that was previously in the "out" position...need to push it back it and voila, the auto dimming now works on auto, day and night.
Have u tried speeding on the highway? Does it get less punchier during high speed since it has lower hp?
