I've come to use the closest position on ACC for most things. Anything else and the behaviour described above - too far away and yet already decelerating to match the vehicle ahead - is true. There's also a setting in the individual drive modes, where you can set it for comfort, sport, normal, eco (I think), or at least my Kodiaq has that, so I'd expect a profile Superb to have it too. I tend to have a lot of situations where I'm rapidly approaching a slower truck and want (and have free lanes) to pass. Dropping the speed too much is unnecessary in this context.

 

 

In the UK, the detents on the cruise stalk are 5mph, no? So how are you getting it to 63? push down twice and then pull three times towards you? is there any link between pulling it and the speed increasing?

(in km/h countries, it seems to be 10km/h. and you can get singles with buttons on the wheel in modern VWs or pulling the stalk in the older ones. Yes, I do drive too many rental cars... )

Like this using the resume pull (at least on my 2018 Superb)

Brettikivi. The rocker switch on the end of the ACC stalk permits changes of 1mph specifica;lly  I use it for speed reduction.

Ok, TIL. I will have to test this, don't usually touch the SET button after I hit it once.

I was wondering if the switch is somehow getting confused between the pull towards and the flick upwards. That could explain something, but not a jump from 63mph to 70mph. Would explain a jump from 63km/h to 70km/h, with the 10km/h detents.

 

I sometimes do flick "wrongly", I noticed that because it shows a x1 or xx1 target speed.

But yes, such large surge of speed unrequested sounds like a glitch.
