Adaptive Cruise Control Question
Hey Everyone.
I'm trading my 14' S6 on an 18' S5 Sportback in a few weeks and I have a question about the adaptive cruise control in the new Audi's. I have heard several people mention that the car will slow down on curves on the highway if it thinks your "adaptive" speed setting is too high. I know the setting where the car can adjust the adaptive cruise speed based on speed limit signs can be disabled.... but can this "feature" (where the car will "know" the route ahead and slow down or speed up based on what it thinks it should do) be disabled as well? The S6 is perfect in this regard - only slows down or speeds up if someone gets in front of me. I don't need or want my car to change my speed based on the route. I want to do that myself. Can this "feature" be disabled on the 2018's?
Thanks!
