    Can someone clarify the 456GT shock selector switch meaning.

    I know centre position is Normal but:

    Does "S" stands for Sport or Soft ?
    Does "H" stand for Hard or Highway ?

    Can't seam to find anything in the owner's manual.

    I would say that S is for soft and H for Hard...

    LOL, Thanks. I've been just assuming S stands for Sport. My 550 Maranello has a suspension selector for Sport but it's a bit more obvious in that car as it is actually labelled Sport.

    Sport does a lot more on the 456M and 550 than just set the shock actuators and shock ECU like the shock switch does on the 456. Sport also determines when ASR actuates, with Sport mode meaning less intervention.
