Well after a week. I'm never turning off TOW mode. The trans is SO MUCH more responsive. It holds gears, delays up-shifting, will downshift properly when coming to a stop. I hear & feel it downshifting all the way to 1st gear when coming to a stop. Like a proper car should be. If I need to get on the gas again, it's in the lower gear not the higher gear.
Combined with the throttle controller & the NISMO, it's awesome!
You also get the adding enjoyment of the NISMO as you can hear & feel it much more now.
I'm sure gas mileage will suck & I don't care about that. Wear I'm not concerned about either.
The only negative I can think is you do feel a hard 2-1 shift when coming to a stop. The trunk will lunge as it downshifts. But I'm fine with it.
And Hallelujah !!!!!!! The zip tie works to hold the TOW button on at all times! 😁 😁
I have another 3D print coming this week for that button to match the auto stop/start.
And the cruise control doesn't decide to downshift 4 gears at 80 to keep up 2MPH speed. There was an old thread I saw about using TOW mode for that reason.
YMMV!
