from the 07. Also when I push the S button the exhaust note changes but I don't notice any difference in the throttle. Supposedly it changes the throttle map. Is it something you can feel?

Default It does make the throttle more responsive.....

basically, non-sport mode is easier to drive around town. If you really want to feel what it does try this:

Do a fairly hard launch from standstill. At about 4000-5000rpm with the accelerator about 3/4 depressed, hit the S button. You will feel the accelerator suddenly get a bit more responsive. It is not a dramatic difference, but it is there.

Default Badge should be there...

Either your car was built on a Monday or someone snagged it.

Maybe someone snagged it. I was going to remove it anyway. Hope I'm not missing any other parts.

Default Be on the lookout for a "RS4 Honda"

You need to get your dealer to replace the badge, regardless of whether you plan on removing it
