Default Drive select bug or normal?

If I select Dynamic mode it automatically changes the trans to S mode as expected.

If I turn off the car while in Dynamic mode, the car starts back up in Dynamic mode, but the trans stays in D mode. (no matter if the car is warmed up, I checked this as well)

If I select another drive select mode, then select Dynamic again, the trans will go into S mode automatically again.

Can anyone else confirm?

It's normal on all Audis with ADS. A simple pull on the shifter to S mode will reinstate the throttle and gear maps back to Dynamic mode.
