On my 2014 cla dash display i have a percentage screen that has acceleration, constant and coasting. I can get it upto 100% status which i guess is a good place, however i am curious about the coasting in an automatic car and how its achieved correctly, for example on my way to work i have a steep down hill stretch of road i tend to just lift my foot off the accelerator and let the car just run itself down hill, is this coasting in an auto?
Accelerator i have not quite worked out what makes that bar go up for example if i floor it then the bar goes down so clearly i am not doing that correct lol. i must add sometimes when i do attempt this coasting thing the cars feels like it is applying the brakes ever so slightly there is abit of resistance, maybe thats just my imagination.
this is my 1st merc and loving it so far.
cheers
