Do you have a manual transmission? Because the Sport button is only on automatics.

Yip, only on auto, and all it does is change the gear shift to be more aggressive, and get closer to the red line (the manual is still quicker 0-100)

I've also read automotive reviews that state Sport mode allows more engine noise into the cabin through the sound tube, is this true?

My manual's got a SPORT button.
Silver, square'ish, with some cool holes drilled in it - looks nice. Actually, there are three of them - the SPORT button is the one on the right. The harder you push it, the better it works... ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited to add a photo of my SPORT button

This photo is of an auto, not a manual.
You can see P(ark)..R(everse)..behind the button of the e-brake. Trimmed and turned the pic - now easy to see...
