I can't remember where it was changing now, but I do remember stopping when I saw 2 of the 3 lines show up, thinking to myself, "Well, whatever this is, it's probably set to medium and that'll work."

So was the button above the steering weight control button (the one with the small tach symbol that I set to Sport) actually throttle response, then? That was my first thought, but the guy who got me into the car told me it was the "transmission speed button."
Yes efficient, sport, and sport+ are the settings for throttle response (as well as anti-lag, cooling, and numerous other things activated in the different modes).

As mentioned, the button with the 3 bars controls the DCT shift speed. I would imagine it just takes some getting used to the DCT and how to drive it because while it may not be pdk good I certainly don't hear many complaining that the shifts aren't lighting fast.
