That guy with the goats
The cruise control on my recently acquired 2004 Golf acts funny. I'll turn it on, set it by pressing the speed control down button (I'm presuming it's the same to set as my '10 JSW). About 90% of the time, the car will slow down a bit, and eventually throttle itself up to keep up to speed. Checked this with the GPS app on my phone - I'll set at 64 or 65. It'll go down to 59 or 60 before it gives itself more throttle to try to get back to what I'd set (64 or 65).
The road I tried this on was relatively flat, although there were a few small inclines. RPMs were just over 2000 in 5th gear. Is this common or just a quirk on a Mark IV? This is my first Mark IV and second TDI. I also can't read the owners manual, because it's in French (car originally came from Canada).
