ACC 2015

Post by Dreamer »

I’m about to purchase my first MK 3 scirocco and have been looking at 2013/14 models which all seem to have ACC.

I have decided to up my budget and get a 2015 DSG 150bhp but it would appear the ACC is no longer available on the newer model. Is this the case? If so does the car still handle great?

Many thanks for any help

ACC is now used for "Adaptive Cruise Control" and DCC is now used for "Dynamic Chassis Control". The terminology changed between the older and newer cars.

Cars without DCC still handle really well. If you've never had DCC, I doubt very much you would miss it. Assuming a car ticks all the other boxes, I wouldn't let the lack of DCC be a deal breaker.

I think you mean dynamic chassis control and adaptive cruise control?

Yes I was referring to chassis control. I didn’t see any button near the gear selection so assumed it didn’t have it.

Thanks for all your advice.

On a positive, I suppose it’s one less thing to go wrong[emoji848][emoji189][emoji4][emoji1303]
