Auto box memory
Well, either everyone is still recovering from the holidays, or so hard at work, or no issues with D3 at all -- (I assume the latter) that the Africa forum is so quiet. So let me kick-off.
Seems like SWAMBO has taken over D3 and I only get to drive it during week-ends. Obviously our driving styles differ (Shut up Baben ). I battle to get D3's auto box to respond when extra power/ kick-down is required. Is the so-called memory of the gearbox so prominent and can one somehow override this ?? When I get to drive it for longer periods it seems to respond better, but after a week of SWAMBO driving it gets "lazy"Erstwhile - D3 S '07. Dual battery system. Upgraded tow hitch.

Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I can remember the different Key FOB's recall certain settings, depending on model, with the SE the Aircon and Radio settings are recalled for each Key FOB.
My Wife uses one, I use the other, and I have not experienced a difference in the Gearbox after my wife has driven the D3 with her own Key.Disco4 SDV6 HSE 2013, Faultmate MVS2.

I on the other hand have a different problem . Mine kicks down too easily because of my more manly masculine driving style. Maybe we need to swap cars every so often
