If you've ever disconnected the battery, its in adaptive. Your XR is s2 hey? Do the reset on each setting using the how to in the last post in the link i provided you & watch out for flashing symbols on the dash (if its s2). Maybe then you can work out what setting its on. My guess is its in performance.

What it should be on will be up to you after some trial & error, depends on how you drive. I haven't settled on a setting on mine yet, but its in performance atm. Good luck!

When the battery is disconnected, the adaptive shift settings return to the stock settings your XR left the factory with afaik.
