Should I replace transmission mode [Win/Eco/Sprt] switch? 850

As far as I know the Winter mode just tells the transmission to skip first gear to reduce the likelyhood of wheel spin when starting out in winter conditions. Mine doesn't have a sport mode, but I would assume it is just adjusting shift points. Unless you are really in tune with your tranny and know it isn't changing based on switch selection I wouldn't worry about it.
