Thought I'd finally try and fix this as I'm likely to start wanting more motorway/long distance miles
Right now cruise control is rubbish. 'resume' acceleration is glacial on a flat road and it won't hold the set speed on anything more than the slight hint of an incline. I have to use the accelerator to get back up to the set speed.
More noticeable at lower speeds or when the torque converter is not locked up, the accelerator is on/off every second or so. When the tc is not locked you see and feel the revs go up and down 6-800rpm, otherwise you can hear it load/unload and the mpg fluctuates 10-15mpg.. that's on a flat roof with no wind etc when it should just 'cruise'
There's no related fault codes, engine otherwise runs fine though i do get the puff of smoke when the second turbo kicks in for the first time
