A good point, well presented.

 

So, it is “predictive speed” that needs to be turned off?

Settings

 

pACC (predictive cruise control)

pACC represents an extension of the ACC system.

pACC adjusts the speed according to recognized speed limits and the route, e.g. curves, intersections or roundabouts.

The system uses the following sources to evaluate the situation:

• Navigation data

• Traffic Sign Recognition

• Sensors, radars and cameras

WARNING

pACC does not respond to railway crossings.

 

Activation / deactivation and setting

In the Infotainment system, in the menu     .

• 

  • Driving programme: - Setting the vehicle acceleration when the ACC is switched on (this setting is made for vehicles with driving mode selection Driving modes)

  • Last distance selected - Switch on/off the last distance selected

  • Distance: - Setting the distance to vehicles in front

  • Road layout preview - Switch the cruise control on/off according to the road profile (e.g. reduce speed before a bend)

  • Speed limit preview - Switch the speed control on/off according to the permissible speed

   

   

  Ok so heres an insert from a 2020 manual i located, no pictures and quite short, but if all else fails,im sure you can locate the manual for your specific car if you input the VIN number on the skoda site, and acces your manual, or use the app you can download, its called MySkoda for android, at least here in Croatia, there you can also input your VIN and get all sorts of data, and the manual!

Thanks. Just checked the manual.

 

Speed limit preview Seems to be what I need to deactivate.

Try it out and see, not sure if that includes the traffic sign decceleration as well, would be nice to get this resolved, as im also wondering now how it actually works, there should be 3 options, if you input your route into the stnav it should slow down according to your route, then it should slow down according to the signs (aka traffic sign recognition) and lastly according to traffic ahead, but thats the normal acc, not pacc!

In the zones where PACC works properly, the car will adjust the speed to the limit, so when you hit the new limitation, it will start to accelerate, or will have already braked to slow you down. Useful for when you have left your brain at home. 
I am not sure if this is based on the road signs, GPS data, or both.

 

My issue is on a trip I do once every couple of months. I will try changing the Speed Limit Preview for that trip as I join the Autoroute. It is annoying, as it can wake the wife and kids up. I much prefer a quiet drive when I am at motorway speeds.
