Noticed this a few times, again tonight cos I was on the space saver spare tyre so limited to 80...

Slapped the cruise on for the M50 (Dublin M50 not the one to Wales) 80kph, DS in 6th, seems happy enough, but, and this has happened before, sometimes get sort of a surging/jerking effect like it's too slow for the gear. On cruise the DS box never seems to change down itself that I've noticed, left-paddle down and it's happy. Thing is tho normally if cruise wasn't on it would be fine in 6th at 80 and a lot less, must be the software logic getting mixed up. Anyone else experienced this?

Mine does it - cruise on and going down hill. Spoke to Marios and it is normal. I guess newer cars have different technology
