It really depends on the car. Sometimes it can stand for "Sport", but typically it stands for Second if it is placed in that particular order of P R N D S L.

"S" mode



The floor selector lever also has an S position. When S is selected, "sport" mode is activated in the DSG. Sport mode still functions as a fully automatic mode,identical in operation to "D" mode, but upshifts and downshifts are made much higher up the engine rev-range.This aids a more sporty driving manner,by utilising considerably more of the available engine power, and also maximising engine braking. However, this mode does have a detrimental effect on the vehicle fuel consumption, when compared to D mode. This mode may not be ideal to use when wanting to drive in a 'sedate' manner; nor when road conditions are very slippery, due to ice, snow or torrential rain - because loss of tyre traction may be experienced (wheel spin during acceleration, and may also result in roadwheel locking during downshifts at high engine rpms under closed throttle).



S is highlighted in the instrument display, and like D mode, the currently used gear ratio is also displayed as a number

The S stands for Second gear. In this selection your car will only shift in first and second. Good for decending mountain grades, or starting out in snow. Happy motoring

Splitting up is complicated even with the undeniable fact that that's great to have your ex desiring you returned. once you have been going out, did she ever say "i will by no ability end loving you" or "i prefer to stay with you perpetually and consistently will"? properly, they actual will in case you persist with those steps
