I noticed this yesterday when I took the car out of the garage to clean it, it didn't make any pops on initial start up. Is that because of the warm weather ?

Same reason it doesn't always pop when you rev it.
The car doesn't start up in dynamic so the tone will change when you scroll through the modes.

If it's a cold start it doesn't pop, but should pop on start-up when warm (when you restart after driving it etc).
 
Oh right, sorry. I only noticed it this time for some reason, I did cycle it through to dynamic before I fired it up. For some reason I remembered it would pop on cold start, maybe I remembered wrongly.

I don't think selecting dynamic before starting actually puts it in dynamic.
I don't get the post earlier either saying it doesn't pop when cold. It 100% pops more when it's cold. It's bound to when it's over fuelling.

Cold start, not just when it’s cold.

Can’t remember as it’s been a while lol, but don’t remember it popping when on a cold start program, but it usually does on normal start.

What's a cold start program?

When the car starts up from what it deems cold, so first start of the day for instance.

That time where the revs stay high for a minute or so, and the annoying feeling of pressing the throttle where the revs rise but the car doesn’t pull!

Then after that first minute it’s all normal again.

So, should it or shouldn't it pop from its first start ?
