That is great, an improvement on the older tiguan cruise control, as it wasn’t acc. Just waiting for mine to arrive..with the factory now being built as we speak. This R line, looks like a real improvement over the Mk1 which i have, having said that, i still love mine.

Great well explained video. The manual is confusing, so having the ACC explained in layman terms is very helpful. I have a 2018 Golf GTD and as yet have not tried setting this system up. Listening to your easy to understand review I'm going to give it a try out tomorrow on my way to York. Many thanks.

Thanks for the informative video, I pick up my R-Line Tech in August, videos like this help get a head start with all the technology. With regards to the adaptive cruise control, if you approached a t-junction & there was a vehicle already stationary at the junction will this register with the acc and brake automatically or does the driver have to brake manually ? Many thanks.

Great videos, I use them rather than looking at the manual! Agree it's a great car - one question though I see in most of your videos you have drive mode set to eco, I've tried in mine but each time i get out/back in the vehicle it defaults back to normal mode. I contacted the dealership who said this is right and same on Mercedes.... Do I really have to change the driving mode to eco everytime I get in the car or am I doing something wrong? James

@kaieshabish22

5 жыл бұрын

james newson Hi James. No, that’s the way it is and it really infuriates me, it’s one of my pet hates, in this world of saving fuel and carbon monoxide levels you’d think it would be permanently set to eco. However, after 10,000 miles it’s become second nature to put it into eco mode before moving off. I don’t really see a massive difference in mpg but I really like the coasting function which you only get in eco mode, however at night I leave it in normal mode because I like the adaptive headlights. GRRRRR! Damn you Volkswagen.

Hi, great vids does the ACC work the same on manual cars?.

@kaieshabish22

5 жыл бұрын

johnny xl5 Sort of. But when slowing down, once the engine revs get too low or high for the gear you’re in you’ll obviously have to change gear manually, with DSG it changes for you so there is a lot less involvement from the driver and it does seem like it was designed for the DSG box but I had it on my Golf previously and I loved it. It’s one of the biggest reasons I had the DSG over the manual because I use it all the while. Also from a stand still you just need to press ‘resume’ and the car just drives itself and changes gear itself back up to the previously set cruise speed; it won’t do that with the manual. Hope this helps. All the best

Good Video, Does the Adaptive Cruise Control work without Cruise Control Activated? Example: Does the vehicle automatically slow down when a vehicle is detected and keep the set distance without Cruise Control Activated?

Hi buddy. Question about the adaptive lane guidance. Mine tends to dissapear,then reappear at different speeds,sometines on the same trip. Also it doesnt hold a line as you mentioned. Dealers response was " this will only work 3 times" ????? Im really confused. Thanks in advance.

@kaieshabish22

6 жыл бұрын

Not sure about the three times thing. Mine is fairly reliable, it won't work under 40mph and it won't work if the lines are difficult to distinguish, or if you're indicating. If none of these answer your question I'd be going back to the dealer and taking a technician out for a test drive to show them the issue. Mine does hold position fairly well, it has a moment now and again but soon settles down

It’s a bit hit and miss to be honest on main roads. It does tend to work better on motorways where the white lines are more visible. I wouldn’t like to trust it with the 20” alloys against the verge but it will work if the lines are clear enough and the curve of the road is not too severe.

This car does not have TJA in any form and any reference to it should be removed because all it does is cause people to think their car might have it. Certainly in the UK there are very few if any cars that have TJA but but most if not all have ACC which is an entirely different thing.
