just looking for some fellow owners perspective here.
I'm finding when having a spirited drive with the car in R+ mode that the front wheels are spinning up in 1st / 2nd gear way too much (to the point I can feel the judder and wheels almost jumping under the front arches as they struggle for grip)
I don't (think) I have TC/VSA turned off (certainly no light on the dash saying it's switched off) but I'm wondering if R+ mode means the traction control function is disabled or greatly reduced. Maybe the roads are bit more slippery/greasy right now but I'm surprised to get the bang-bang judder at front rather than the system do it's job and limit the power to ensure traction is maintained.
what have others experienced, maybe i'm just too heavy footed. could be cold tyres maybe but again you'd think the car would sort it all out.
