For all of you with the F55 option who cannot “feel” the difference between Sport and Tour modes, I have opened a Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center (cac@chevrolet.com) Service Request Case Number: 71-852331324.

"We non-track drivers who do not drive the slalom or roller coaster
roads to work each day need a F55 software modification to smooth out the ride over cement interstate expansion joints and pot holes."

If you want to get this issue fixed then send an Email to CAC referencing -- Service Request Case Number: 71-852331324.

Poll:
Can you “feel” the difference between F55 Sport and Tour modes of operation ?
Yes
No

Dif

This is a first for me as I'm not into any rougher ride than need be .. but I wouldn't want my F55 to ride any softer in Tour mode than it does now.
Some people might, but no way would I consider this a Issue needing Fixing.

I can tell the difference right away between Tour and Sport mode

Dif,
Then the "fix" should have a multi-mode option selection like the ZR1,
eg Normal or XXXXXX.

The system knows if and how it's working. It will put a message on the DIC if it fails. It would be nice to have a dash lite or DIC message to show the current mode.

Dif

I'm not familiar with the Multi-mode in the ZR1, thought they just had 2 settings like the base F55.
Do you mean you're looking for a bigger difference between the 2 modes ...
Like real soft and real hard ?

cthusker

I think that's really something that should be on the system...

I just look down at the **** on the console; putting it on the DIC is redundent and another opportunity for something electronic to fail..

i have never had an issue and always drive in "tour". as for the "not telling the difference" between S and T, i don't get it. on smooth roads (what we have here for the most part) i can tell the second i switch. FWIW

hot1

I can feel the difference almost immediately. I wouldn't want it any softer. Works great.

KenHorse

I can feel the difference - the car seems lighter and more nimble. Not to mention is seems to take less steering effort in a curve.

I can feel the difference between the Sport and Tour modes.
I roll in the Sport mode 99.9% of the time.
I want firmest ride possible.

RicK T

I can feel the difference. We use Tour most of the time. I think the car rides great with exceptional control and comfort, right with our previous 5 series BMW which I thought was the greatest thing since sliced bread. (suspension wise )

No way would I want GM to change anything about the F55.

You guys are driving me crazy! I can't wait to get my car. I ordered it two weeks ago and I am obsessed.

Usually use Tour, and can most definitely feel the difference with sport.
It would be really cool if GM took a play from the Ferrari handbook and offered other modes that included variation in transmission responsiveness and other details like an open or lower rpm opening on the dual mode exhaust with increases in suspension firmness.

Hmmm... never drove it in sport mode, I'll have to go out and see if I notice the difference!

NOCRISIS

I used to be able to tell the difference before but not anymore after I had dealership replace shifter and they checked the system to make sure they hooked it back up but I cannot tell difference now.
