Cruise on manual cars

[Varche]

Had plenty of cruise/auto.

Have a gutless Corsa on hire and was surprised to see cruise on it.

Discovered that you can change gear and it doesn't disconnect cruise. Never too late to learn stuff.

A switch on the clutch pedal should have stopped the CC from revving the nuts off the engine when you disengaged the clutch

or ... are you saying that CC was inhibited when you changed gear but re-engaged after the gear change

[Varche]

Good question.

I think the latter. Inhibited until re engaged. I only have 2 more hours with it but will experiment.

I just expected clutch or brake use to disconnect cc.

Me too

I seem to be driving lots of different (but mostly Japanese) hire cars recently. Most don't have cruise and the ones that do don't have instructions *sigh*

That's correct, if you keep the clutch pressed longer though it will disengage the cruise until its re-enabled via the main controls

Tried different things like down a gear up a gear and it kept working. Revs just drop to tickover.

Didn't try depressing the clutch for a long tme. Not something I would do on the move.
