Hi
Just got a A3 2.0tdi se start/stop manual (temporary car.) According to the Audi website blurb, the hill assist is fitted, as well as to the s-tronic.
My handbook states that to use hill assist, you must apply the footbrake and not the handbrake.
Just so you know, I am applying the footbrake, 1st gear engaged and the clutch is depressed.
I have tried this but it wants to roll back (hand brake at the ready! )
Am I doing something wrong? Does it need 'activating' within DIS?
My understanding of hill hold assist is that upon releasing the footbrake I have approx 2-3 secs before any roll back occurs. Is that right?
I'm starting to doubt it is fitted or if indeed it is activated.
Not sure if someone can explain it better.
Any help/advice would be really appreciated.
Cheers,
Andy
