Correct, only ACC hold the Speed Downhill

ACC will maintain the speed to around 5-8%. I use it a lot - doing 30mph it will go as low as 28ish before accelerating properly and go as high as 32ish before braking properly.

Normal/dumb cruise will only control the minimum. At higher speeds it does a good job of the maximum (engine braking, wind resistance, etc) but is a bit hit and miss.

Obviously with ACC you can set follow distances, as well as how fast it acclerates, etc.

I can't claim credit for that - it was all @Paws4Thot

"I hired a car without it and wandered all over the place as was so used to it keeping me in lane I forgot and had to concentrate a lot more" - you forgot you had to concentrate to keep two tons of metal going in a straight line at 70mph. Gotcha. I can see now why you were upset at the edited version.

Also FYI, maybe check images before uplaoding them to the internet? Mike Ehrmantraut from Breaking Bad seems to be in some of your infotainment photos.

That's not my experience on numerous cars including two Skodas. My dumb cruise control pretty much matches the set speed. The only time it struggles is going downhill just like it does if you were trying to control your speed manually, either by braking or changing gear.
