It's not really a mechanical issue, just something I will have to get used to. The cruse control in my gen5 would cancel when I shifted, so when I was coming into an area with a slower speed limit I would just down shift to slow down and cancel the cc, but the gen6 cc stays active between shifts so now when I down shift and expect to slow down instead my Camaro nails it when I let off the clutch I guess it is nice for the cc to not cancel out between shifts when accelerating but I'm not used to it being that way, and for me it was more convenient for it to cancel out between shifts. I will just have to get used to hitting the cancel button manually when coming into a slower speed zone from now on.

This doesn't seem right. Is it supposed to be that way? I've never heard of a car not canceling cruise when the clutch pedal is depressed.

Agreed. Both my 12 and 15's did that. Of course, I bought the A8 this time around and can't double check with mine, but it should disengage the cruise when you shift the M6.

Guess I should check my owners manual to see what it says about the cc maybe it is supposed to cancel. I agree that it seems weird to not cancel but I assumed that's the way it was ment to be. It sure does mess with me when going into a slower speed zone, I am glad I wasn't driving next to any cops when it happened, would look like I was trying to race them

Yes, you don't want the throttle to stay open when you shift. Very strange.

From the owners manual.

Page 226. Pressing the clutch to change gears with the M6 will not cancel cruise. Have to depress clutch several seconds.
Not what I was expecting either.

That's bizarre. I can think of very few times this feature would be useful. The only thing I can think of is that it allows you to change gears while going up a steep hill without having to set cruise again. As someone who likes to use cruise control a lot, this will take some getting used to. Especially since I tend to downshift and engine break before using normal brakes as I approach a stoplight.

Thanks for that Howard I'm to lazy to look it up lol

The throttle doesn't stay open wile the clutch is depressed, but as soon as you let off the clutch the cc steps on it It will definitely take some getting used to. I think it canceling comes in more handy then it not canceling, not exactly sure their reason for changing it.

[hadkins2]

Agreed it is strange. I would prefer the cruise disengage when the clutch is pressed but I was thinking about the way I use the cruise and more times than not when I come to an exit ramp and would want to cancel the cruise I think I use the cancel button on the wheel more than the brake or clutch. I need to see how it reacts dropping a gear to pass or on a hill with the cruise on.

My Q60S M6 cancels with the clutch also. Weird.. never had issue with it doing that.

I can see this being very unsafe.. Most manual drivers downshift to slowdown.. Unless you mean upshift.. If it stays when I upshift, I'm ok with that, but if it doesn't when I down, then that is a huge issue.

[ussj4brolli]

A8 here and I can shift up and down all day and stay active. I know it's supposed to and were talking about manual, but had to throw that in the mix lol

It stays active on upshift or downshift, doesn't matter, you have to hold the clutch in for about 10 seconds before it cancels. 10 seconds doesn't sound like long but it is when you are used to it canceling right away. You downshift to slow down then let off the clutch and the cc nails it like you'er trying to race, would definitely not look good if a cop saw it, and could be really bad if you are not travelling at a safe distance to the person in front of you. Just something new to get used to, nothing unexpected with a brand new car, just a little annoying.

You just agreed with my point 100%.. Downshifting is traditionally for lower your speed.. I DONT understand how this passed through. My current car, ANY touch to the brake or clutch disengages the C.C...

So this is SAFE but remote start on a manual isn't? Anyone know who i can contact at GM to get an answer on their reasoning? This really does bother me.

You are in 6th, drop the car into 4th to hit a corner, and the car just slams it into high gear?
