Default turn signal question

I could've sworn i remembered when i first got my 2016 tc if i lightly tapped on the turn signal lever it would blink 3 times (to change lanes) or if i pushed it down it would stay on. I can't seem to get it to do the 3 blink anymore..

Can someone confirm that their 2014+ tc does or does not do this?

Hi tC toph,

My 2015 tC RS9 turn signals works normally when push down.
I never seen the 3 blink situation you described.
10, 000 miles and a year later, everything normal.

Hey, what was you drinkin' when you were blinkin'? LOL

Well i only thought that was the case because my girlfriends 2014 mini cooper does it. Then she said she thought my car did it too so it kinda tripped me up and I've been thinking about it the past couple days haha..

Also, for the paddle shifters on the steering wheel will it change gears if you hit either the + or - paddles even without shifting the shifter into the manual shift option?

I think if i hit the + paddle it changes it to manual shifting until i come to a complete stop then goes back to normal automatic mode. But it won't go into manual mode if i hit the - paddle..

German cars (like the mini) have had that feature for ages. Toyota has it in the RAV4, Camry and Avalon since 2013 or 2014. IDK about other models. I know on eBay Germany you can get modules to retrofit the "Komfortblinker" feature.

On my 2015 tC RS9, when I'm in Auto mode, nothing happens when I hit the + paddle. But, if I hit the - paddle it goes to the Manual mode shifts into 1, then 2 if I hit again all the way up to 5 each time, then D. If I come to a Full Stop, it automatically goes to D.
