    Sure, but what I meant was that there seems to be more engine fiddling than just the throttle with cruise control.
    I can get better economy but it can pull up a hill quicker than I can!
    I think I know what you mean by pulling uphill with cruise control on , the throttle pedal would have to be banged hard to the floor to get the full acceleration that the engine is capable of , the cruise control would electronically make the engine respond directly at the throttle body rather than manual input from the driver . I know in our T5.1 the response after cancelling cruise and then engaging is very quick .

      Yes.
      It has a bit less get up and go than the Transporter and uses more fuel but I make more money!
      There are some little issues but nothing major so far.
      Will have the 100k service next month in under a year............VW are not saying what happens then!

        Yeah......even on full throttle up a hill I can't get the grunt that CC can.
