Which brings me back to my question on a similar post.
How does the Mk4 transmission cope with a long, steep, downhill section of road, where one would normally change down to around 2nd gear, in a manual gearbox to provide additional braking effort.
I don’t believe the Mk4 system can give as much retardatiion as a manual box, even in ‘B’ position.
So far, nobody can confirm this, or otherwise.
Also I don’t believe that modern brakes , don’t fade!!
