[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7432431, member: 718"] Have ZF got a ten speed? They have a nine speed for transverse engines but most are eight speed. Not heard of a ten speed ZF yet. The only ten speed transmissions I know of are the Ford/GM and Honda's new one. I have a nine speed ZF but it doesn't do what you say in my car. In fact I've only heard of the very very latest models of cars with adaptive cruise control changing their speed for bends according to sat-nav but not actually changing gears. They will downshift for engine braking when cruise control, active or not, is engaged, as well as brake down hills as appropriate. Adaptive cruise control and pilot assist type auto-steering are great on dual carriageways and motorways with the adaptive cruise being particularly useful even in a queue on A roads, but it does use the brakes more than I normally would. The automatic functions generally react rather than anticipate, although there are some exceptions where systems do anticipate, such as DCT's pre-selecting the next ratio that it thinks will be appropriate from a choice of an up or down change.
