Since the title of this thread is misleading. I am curious is there a sport mode on the 7AT's as a few have posted about their dealings with shift points. I am assuming they just mean when they put it in manu-matic mode and can bump the shifter or use the paddles as being "sport" mode? Or is there a button like on the 6MT labeled S-Mode for synchrorev matching?

There is no S Mode on the AT's as Synchro-Rev is for revving the engine when using the clutch downshifting or upshifting on the manual tranny. The OP was referring to the "S" button on the right side of the shifter, not to VDC or AT's as evident by his later post ...and yes, the paddle shifters on the AT's are what constitutes "Sport" mode if you will as you can shift up or down manually (to a certain extent - the computer has to agree with your shifting...!)
