Default Drivetrain Programming won't stay in DYNAMIC Mode

I've setup my own "Individual" Programming for the car

I've put the drivetrain setting to "Dynamic"

Whenever i restart the car, put it in drive, the car goes into normal (D) mode instead of Dynamic (SD)

If i go to the car settings, it shows that "Individual" is selected

If i then RE-SELECT "Individual" the car goes into Dynamic (SD) Mode


Am I missing something? What's the point of having this option to select the Dynamic mode if it doesn't actually leave the drivetrain in that mode?

It sounds like the MMI car settings for the S7 work the same as the A7 - the car always defaults back to normal drive mode.

The only solution is to pull back on the gear level which engages dynamic.

But then why even have the option in the Indivdual mode to customize the drivtrain setting?

It works when you leave the car in "Dynamic" Mode....

It should also work in "Individual" mode shouldn't it?

Are you sure that it works in Dynamic mode? I've noticed this issue as well and I don't use Individual.
