DiRT Rally Dirt rally ps4 and a little problem

[Heath82]

hi guys, i have a little problem with this amazing game. The first time i played in the preferences i set transmission manual + clutch and sequential so i can use both according to the car i drive (like assetto corsa). In the option i had to set each single gear on my Thrustmaster t8ha and everything worked fine. When i restart the game my gear didn’t work anymore, i opened the option menu and they were already set but it didn’t work. So i tried to set gears again and it worked!! So my question is: should i set the gears every time I restart the game?
