I too have a cruise control fault - its been in a few times and they report "cannot simulate fault"...

 

Basically when im cruising it will intermittantly cut out, but its not like me just turning it off - the car actually jolts as if i press the brakes suddenly for a few milliseconds - kinda makes the noise you would imagine too... It then does not want to turn back on sometimes and i have to press the + or set button repeatedly before it does anything. This can happen again and again some days but then others it doesnt. It might be a coincidence but on a morning (cold) it doesnt do it but then if its been sat in the sun and a hot day it seems to happen more often.

 

The trouble is the garage never test it long enough to identify a fault and I know they are waiting till my warranty runs our in March!

 

Any ideas anyone?

exactly what I had - for me this was a problem with the clutch sensor which was replaced under warranty. Used to make me feel sick after a while!!

 

 

 

Same here,my clutch sensor was found to be the fault as well.

I have still not taken this issue to the dealers. However something else may be happening. I wonder if anyone could offer advice if it may be related?

 

My Clutch sometimes is starting to feel crunchy/gritty when i push it down (its the only way I can describe it! hope it makes sense), sometimes it even results in the car feeling jerky. Do you think this could be related to the sensor/cruise fault?

interesting. I've had several attempts to fix this (which started after I had a software patch installed to correct the service warning indicator coming on too early and not being able to be reset).

 

The last attempt involved a new 'control block'(?) being fitted behind the steering wheel - there was a recall on this - and was told that this definitely fixed the fault (it hadn't).

 

this clutch sensor issue could also explain why I'm getting a lot of juddering when at biting point when I pull away at junctions...
