Ainars that was my thinking, but equally, just because the capability is there it doesn't means it's being used.
If, as MJ says, the gearbox is measuring input vs output speeds (and it definitely does because we've seen many references to the errors that occur when there's a mismatch) those circuits could well be unused. On the other hand, let's have a look at my old F125 switch for evidence of movement in that area. There are photos somewhere..... Yes indeed, definite evidence of movement through the full arc, and my car this was removed from is a (very) late FL2 with S mode.... The mystery deepens, my shifter is incapable of doing that!
