Seat Leon ST 1.5 - Drive Mode, no button

Afternoon all,
I've just picked up my new (to me) '19 Leon ST 1.5 TSI DSG xcellence lux, which has a million gadgets but doesn't have the drive mode button I am familiar with from my previous '15 SC FR 1.4.

My question is I used to enjoy the Eco mode on long journeys particularly the inertia coasting function. Is there a setting buried somewhere to enable this setting/change suspension/throttle response, or am I restricted to the D/S on the selector lever?

Thanks!

Hi, my 2018 has a mode button on the left just above the passenger side temperature screen, next to the auto stop / start button not sure if that’s the same place as the 2015 was for you?

Thanks for getting back to me - this is where it was on my 2015 but no button on this model.

I think only FR's and Cupra's have the drive mode button, but there may be a setting on the infotainment screen that does it, not very convenient though.
