Also after the 1200 mile service is it all systems go?

I hit it quite a few times before the service was done. Mainly due to the DCT catching me out being in manual mode when I thought it was in auto!

After 1200 miles you can give it hell for leather It really is a different car when you can use all the revs and it really comes alive at 6,000RPM. If you have DCT, set it to S5 and the shift lights encourage you to change at well past 8,000RPM

Sounds & feels awesome........enjoy
