Hi Floks,

What does PSM Sport mean? I feel that the steering has become very precise.

Porsche Stability Management. Notice the orange icon, did you turn off ESP by any chance?

PSM is your suspension management and shock absorbers - Sport is stiffer (harder ride) than normal and Sport Plus is the firmest (for tracking etc). The ESP should not be enabled ordinarily so this may be a fault.

Drive mode Normal - Sport - Sport Plus - Individual will alter the suspensions & shock settings as well as lower the ride height if you have air suspension.

Take a moment and read the Owner’s manual!

I believe PASM is the suspension management.

PSM aka "please save me" from losing control of my car. e.g traction control/ABS

@Chiu
Porsche Stability Management in Sport (not to be confused with Sport drive mode or Sport chassis), will allow the systems that save you from running your car into a wall a bit more leeway to get the car wiggly....

Porsche Stability Management - the orange indicator.

The question I believe the OP is asking, why this light is on. I have never seen this light on, as PSM is always on behind the scenes and it goes into PSM Sport when you go into Sport mode, but I have never seen the light actually on (in the US) to tell you that, unless this is a country specific requirement to notify driver what PSM setting is On.

Ok, just read the manual, and this is what's going on:
