Did you put the auto in sport mode?
In normal mode the automatic runs the car in 2nd gear from stand-still. That's why winter mode starts in 3rd gear! When I heard the salesman telling me the 3rd gear winter mode, I couldn't help chuckling about my old BMW with a three-speed automatic; when the governor on the ZF seized up, the car only drove in 3rd gear, man that was a slow car, starting in the same gear that would bring you to 115mph; thank goodness that car had a I6 tuned for torque, or I wouldn't have been able to -limped around town for a week before taking it to the mechanic.
