Interesting thought; I suppose it would do if driving fast enough! I tend to use CC in 4th gear to keep the car at 30mph whilst passing through a local housing estate . So, when approaching my left turn and changing down at this speed, the revs are nowhere near the red line!!

Thanks Simon, I now know that this is not a fault. However it does seem peculiar that, when CC is activated and one changes down gear to slow the car before entering a bend, the engine revs then increase!

I have recently purchased a Sep 2016 Rapid SEL 1.2TSI which is fitted with cruise control. In previous Octavias I have owned, cruise control switched off automatically when braking or changing gear. However this Rapid cruise control switches off when braking but not when changing gear - is this normal?
