cruise control???

when you activate the cruise control should a light come on to let you know it's activated?
every car I have had with cruise lights up on the dash to let you know,

just wondering?

Re: cruise control???

nope not on this one. odd things like this are apparently part of the charm. LOL! No auto dim mirror after 2004, no autoheadlamps things like that That I come to expect in 40K cars, even 20K cars now.

Re: cruise control???

Neither of my Audis (2003 A4 and A6) have a light either. May be a German thing. Maybe they figure a driver can figure out that cruise is on if they take their foot off the gas and the car maintains speed. I'd rather have had a voltimeter and and oil temp or pressure gauge vs another idiot light. Or, even better, electrochromic dimming mirrors as mentioned.

Re: cruise control???

There is also no "on/off" switch. Simply pull up to set or accelerate, down to decelerate, toward you to re-engage, away from you to cancel. You will learn to love its simplicity, requires no looking at all.
