Cruise Control with braking functionality

• Add to quote

Hi All I have in my X3 (F25) 2011 cruise control with braking functionality. Is there any possibilities to switch off that braking and get rid of that uncomfortable functionality? No long and steep downhills in Finland.  

What do you mean "uncomfortable"? That sounds a little silly. It doesn't suddenly jam on the brakes out of nowhere, it would only brake when engine braking isn't sufficient and the vehicle is speeding up. No, you can't shut that off. If you dont like it, don't use cruise control.  

Have to agree, the system is very well behaved and just enough brake is applied to control the speed to the desired speed. I recently experimented and while it was engaged at 70 mph I quickly knocked the set point down to about 50 in 5 mph increments. I could certainly feel the brakes being applied but it was also not at all dramatic. I think it is a great feature.  

I doubt you can change it but I've never looked into it because it's one of my favorite features. Sent from BimmerApp mobile app  

It's there for a reason.  

There are different opinions about that feature for sure. Typically here in Finland we let the car run freely in our relatively gentle downhills. The worst is there that the system brakes more than needed. Example if it is set to 80km/h in downhills, if the braking starts, the speed is lowered to round 75-77km/h. Think about the drivers driving behind me how irritated they are. There is no braking functionality in my E90 cruise control and it's lot better. It's also good to know that every braking increases energy consumption - which is contrary for example to the aim of stop-and-go feature. Please feel free to like your cruise control with braking.

I am not aware of any other marques that even have a braking function on the cruise control. Any other brand with a car on cruise control running downhill the most it would do is let off the throttle and you would still increase speed. And BMW has had this function .. at least since my first BMW (E36)  

Pretty sure my CLK had it.  

Samp49, I agree with you; I'd like the ability to optionally turn off the braking function while using the speed control. On transition to steep downhill sections it drops the speed 1 to 2 mph slower than the current setting, just as you report, then slowly returns to the current speed setting. On gentle downhill sections I'd like to be able to allow an increase of a few mph above the speed setting without application of the brakes. I sometimes find myself turning the system off on downhill sections to better conform to the speed of the cars around me and to avoid unnecessary use of the brakes, and resuming the speed setting when back on the level. On the other hand, if I'm really concerned about not exceeding a specific speed (for whatever reason!), the braking function is great to have. And the system controls on the steering wheel and indicators on the speedometer and in the heads-up display are great, so the system is really good overall. Nonetheless, it'd be cool to add a "disable auto braking" push button to the current speed control set. "But officer, I just know I had the speed control fully enabled!" None of this is likely. The solution is, of course, to not use the speed control when its braking is not desirable.  

Coder - you are the first who understood the issue and hit the point - thanks. Seems that no cure for the problem is - or is going to be - available. Thanks for activity to all others.  

I totally agree with the request to switch off the braking feature and this is why. Not some smart reply saying "Then don't use it" My reason for switching the thing off is because when using it on the motorway and you find yourself on a descent, the feature can kick in which activates your brake lights which can be very disconcerting to following traffic which could in theory cause a traffic collision. Surely this is justification to be able to switch it off. I often wondered why I saw vehicles brake lights coming on when there was no apparent reason to brake. NOW I KNOW!!  

If you are on a long downhill run, check to see what the fuel consumption meter is telling you. If it is hard against, or approaching the maximum mpg then simply press the button and come out of cruise control until the decent is finished. BUT. Beware. I have had to replace the rear discs at 38000miles because the pads were worn out due to the unwanted operation of the cruise control applying the rear brakes  

At last I found a few people with same need 🙂 I have the same request on my X5 F15. I would like to toggle CC button between: Off - On without braking - On with braking - Off In many driving conditions I don't like that front brakes are aut turned slightly On to reduce speed with a few km/h. This produces a lot of brake-dust on my front rims, wears front brakepads un-even (inner pad most), scares the driver behind me and waste 'energi'. I would therefore like to program this feature is possible to have the 'best from both worlds'. All the features are there, so it should only need some programming - anyone?  

When the cruise control initiates braking do the brake lights come on?

What Is BMW Cruise Control With Brake Function?

When this happens, Active Cruise Control with the Stop & Go feature helps you by sounding the brakes and warning you of impending crashes. The system regulates your speed, keeps a set gap between you and the car in front of you, stops the car when necessary, and then starts the engine again as soon as the traffic situation allows.

In This Article...

Is adaptive cruise control the same as BMW’s cruise control with brake function?

The brake function is a component of the basic cruise control and only applies the brakes to the car while going downhill or otherwise to maintain the pace you have chosen. You can still cruise into the automobile in front of you. As you say, you don’t have the adaptive cruise facility that you are referring to. 23 ene 2020

Are you curious about the purpose of BMW’s Dynamic Cruise Control? Learn how to turn on and off the Dynamic Cruise Control feature to maintain a predetermined speed above 20 mph by watching this video from BMW USA.

Electronic cruise control with an additional braking function is known as dynamic cruise control. This also applies to the Curve Speed Limiter, which slows down the vehicle on curves to allow for smooth lateral acceleration. The car picks up speed and resumes traveling at its pre-curve pace. This can be adjusted by the driver in increments of 1 or 10 km/h. By adjusting the lever on the steering column or the paddle on the steering wheel, acceleration and deceleration can be changed in two dynamic settings.

Active cruise control, which should not be confused with the similarly titled Dynamic cruise control, offers an even more comfortable driving experience. It preserves not just the chosen following distance but also the intended pace. The distance between your automobile and the cars in front of it is continuously measured by a radar sensor with a 200 m maximum range. The sensor can also tell whether these cars are in your lane or another one.

The brake function is a component of the basic cruise control and only applies the brakes to the car while going downhill or otherwise to maintain the pace you have chosen. You can still cruise into the automobile in front of you. You mention an adaptive cruise facility, but you don’t have it, you say.

Use of the brake by cruise control?

The throttle is used by cruise control to regulate your car’s speed in the same manner as you would. The throttle cable and the cable used by the cruise control, which is powered by an actuator via a vacuum instead of the throttle pedal, are typically located side by side in a car with a cable-driven throttle. When the cruise control is activated, the throttle cable moves along with the actuator’s “second” cable.

Naturally, the system will be an electrical setup in a car with a fly-by-wire throttle. However, in both cases, the system is intended to alter the engine’s output, which accelerates or retards the vehicle. Usually, the cruise control only affects the throttle, never the brakes. Additionally, if your vehicle has an automatic transmission, shifting gears won’t interfere with cruise control.

Regardless of the system’s mechanics, everything is controlled by a cruise control computer, which notifies it when the automobile has attained the required speed or when it is deviating from it. Additionally, it can alert the system when the brake pedal is depressed so that it can disable the cruise control instead of trying to overpower the driver. Clever.

What is braking-assisted cruise control?

The following distance can be chosen by the driver, and the cruise control will keep that distance up to the predetermined speed. The vehicle is then slowed down and the following distance is maintained. In certain highly developed systems, the vehicle can even do emergency braking.

What is the operation of BMW Active Cruise Control?

With BMW’s Active Cruise Control, you can choose how far you want to keep from the car in front of you while you’re driving. Using the settings on the left side of the steering wheel, you may easily change distance by reducing or increasing it. The instrument panel in your dashboard will show the distance.

Has BMW adopted adaptive cruising?

I’m thinking about getting a BMW sedan, however since I frequently travel via highway, I want to make sure it includes adaptive cruise control. What makes are included as standard?

When was adaptive cruise control added by BMW?

Active Cruise Control with Traffic Jam Assistant was introduced by BMW in 2013. “Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop+” full speed range radar was introduced by Chrysler in 2014 for the 2015 Chrysler 200.

With cruise control, can you slow down?

Of course, if you’re travelling too fast, you can apply the brakes to turn off the cruise control and slow down, but you can only do so if you’re paying attention. Additionally, when using cruise control, it may be tempting to divert your attention from the road.

Is using cruise control when traveling at low speeds bad?

Although cruise control can be useful, it should only be used in certain circumstances. Relying on cruise control for anything other than an open, clear, and long stretch of road will decrease its effectiveness and raise your risk of getting into an accident. There are some situations where you shouldn’t utilize cruise control:

• Wet and Slippery Roads: When it rains, snows, ices, or hails, all drivers find the roads to be dangerous. Safe vehicle maneuvering requires driving at a moderate speed and adjusting accordingly. Utilizing cruise control on slick roads increases the likelihood of hydroplaning. If you are using cruise control while you approach slick conditions, be cautious to reduce your speed gradually rather than abruptly turning it off to prevent a rapid change in speed.
• High Traffic – Because cruise control is not designed for driving at moderate speeds, it is not appropriate for traffic that is going slowly. When you need to start and stop frequently on the road, like in heavy traffic, cruise control may result in you rear-ending another car.
• Hills and Winding Roads: To make turns safely, you must slow down and alter your speed as you approach bends and curves. Additionally, when going downhill, you need to reduce your pace. On twisting roads, cruise control makes it dangerous to change your pace quickly.

Make sure the road conditions permit safe use before choosing to utilize cruise control to prevent any potential mishaps.

When ought cruise control to be used?

• On extended drives, when fatigue is more prone to set in, feel free to activate cruise control. When you’re driving for a long time, you don’t want to completely unwind, but it’s alright to occasionally give your muscles a respite. Cruise is a fantastic feature that, when utilized wisely, may lessen the strain of extended driving periods.
• When there is little to no traffic, use the cruise control. Enjoy the clean roads while maintaining a steady speed with cruise control.
• When the speed limit remains constant for extended periods of time, just utilize the cruise control. To avoid receiving a ticket, just remember to turn it off and reduce your speed when the speed limit changes.

How do you tell if the cruise control in your car is adaptive?

1. Press the cruise control ON/OFF button on the steering wheel to activate the feature. If your car has a Head-Up Display, or a cluster display, you’ll see a white ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL icon when the system is turned on. An arc with a tiny triangle pointing through it or a speedometer with a car on top might be the icon.

2. While moving at the specified speed, press the SET button to select a cruise speed. When the system is in use, the white ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL symbol will turn green.

What advantages does cruise control offer?

Cruise Control’s advantages There is less possibility of the driver accelerating and rushing past other drivers because cruise control enables drivers to maintain their vehicle at a consistent speed. Additionally, cruise control lowers gas-wasting acceleration and deceleration and controls the amount of gasoline your engine uses.

Use of cruise control and fuel usage

Yes, generally speaking. Due to its capacity to maintain a constant pace, cruise control can help you become more fuel-efficient and can help you save on gas on average by 7–14%. In contrast, the driver’s foot on the pedals can consume more gas due to the constant acceleration and deceleration.

When should cruise control not be used?

According to Ron Wilson, manager of driver education at the Alberta Motor Association, “you should never use cruise control unless you can drive at a consistent speed” regardless of the season. “Therefore, avoid doing so if you’re in heavy traffic or on curvy routes. Additionally, you should never use it on snowy or rainy roads.”

Adaptive cruise control: How secure is it?

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, drivers who use adaptive cruise control (ACC) are more likely to choose a goal speed that is higher than the legal limit because they believe the system to be safer.

The study found that the quicker cruising speeds chosen by the technology users put them at a 10% higher risk of a fatal collision than manual drivers.

Sam Monfort, an IIHS statistician and the paper’s lead author, said: “ACC does provide certain safety benefits, but it’s crucial to examine how drivers can cancel out these benefits by misusing the system.

40 drivers from the Boston region who drove either a 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque or a 2017 Volvo S90 over the course of four weeks were the subject of the study. Statistic analysis was used to arrive at the crash-risk conclusion rather than actual crashes.

The authors of the study concluded that further investigation was necessary to ascertain whether the risk associated with speeding may be mitigated by the systems’ quicker reaction times and capacity to engage in defensive braking.

The semi-automated technology is a component of a group of cutting-edge driver assistance systems found in new cars and is capable of doing some common driving tasks in certain conditions.

While certain safety-enhancing capabilities, like autonomous braking and blind spot identification, are well established, others, like pedestrian detection, are still in their early stages.

Some adaptive cruise control systems can reduce collisions, according to a 2020 study by the Highway Loss Data Institute, an IIHS-affiliated insurance research organization.

Cruise control with brake function

• Add to quote

Hello, Still on the lookout for M140i's and I see some manual cars that are advertised as having the cruise control with brake function. Is this a mistake, how does the car brake when it has no control over the clutch?  

I believe cruise control with brake function will apply the brakes when it exceeds the set speed limit and can't slow down using the engine. For example when going down hill. It will not reduce the speed when encountering a slower vehicl in front and pick up speed again when the obstruction is clear.  

Correct. If you suddenly shoot off down a steep hill the CC will bang the brakes on, or if you suddenly reduce the CC speed a lot. At night you'll spot the brake lights coming on in the rear view mirror. It's not an 'Active' or 'radar' system though, won't prevent you from having accidents.  

Ah, Got it, thanks! Still curious as to what it does when the set target speed is too low for the gear it's in?  

I can't really think of a scenario where you'd be in the wrong gear? You'd have to be using the cruise control in a very strange way. As said before, it will just apply the brakes if you gain speed, going down hills for example. To be honest I find it a waste of time apart from in roadworks or average speed cameras anyway, in which case I'd be in the right gear for my target speed anyway. If it was a complete active/radar controlled cruise control then I can see that being a waste in a manual car, but standard cruise control is fine.

The braking function works that way: 130km/h on highway, from the steering wheel suddently you go down to 90, the car is getting there faster, using the brakes, not only the engine brake,because this will take more.

So no one's attempted it (perhaps quite wisely, I might add). Thanks - and long may our DMF's last!

Reviving classic Russian cuisine

Oct 19 2018.

Roads & Kingdoms talks to Russian chef Vladimir Mukhin of Moscow’s super-restaurant, White Rabbit.

Still in his mid-30’s, Vladimir Mukhin is already one of Russia’s best known chefs and the leading culinary light of the White Rabbit Group, which has 16 restaurants around the country. The most well-known of these, Moscow’s  White Rabbit , was named one of the 50 best restaurants in the world last year. Roads & Kingdoms’ Nathan Thornburgh talked to Mukhin in Moscow about being a fifth-generation chef, reviving classic Russian cuisine, and finding good product in the age of embargoes.

Nathan Thornburgh: Tell me about White Rabbit, what is the food? What are you trying to accomplish there?

Vladimir Mukhin: The White Rabbit is a big restaurant. We’re trying to revive Russian cuisine. I’m a fifth-generation chef, so I’m passionate about the food we create. During the Soviet Union period, we killed Russian food. Classic Russian recipes became too simplified. For example, usually you drink tea, but if you want to be, just to be creative, want to make the tea with milk, you can’t. It would be like stealing milk from the government. People went to jail.

When I was growing up, I remember my grandfather coming to the kitchen and crying because he couldn’t experiment with his food.

Thornburgh: Wow. I remember this famous photo session with Che Guevara which came up with some of his best pictures, maybe two incredible iconic portraits came from an entire roll of film, and the photographer went to him and showed him this roll of film and Che said, What the hell are you doing? You wasted all of these images. You took 30 pictures to get one? That’s the government’s film. It’s a similar mentality.   So you’re telling the story of a kind of cuisine that was lost on the Soviet history and now you’re playing with this idea of finding it again. What does your process look like? Do you get as many grandmothers as you can round up and just kind of shake recipes out of them? How were you doing this?

Mukhin: I just try to work with as many local farmers and producers as I can, so we can use as many Russian ingredients as we can.

Thornburgh: So this is a close relationship.

Mukhin: Yes. I traveled throughout Russia—not just the big cities, but also the villages to talk with older people.

Thornburgh: You know I think people don’t understand the vastness of Russia, and how big it’s collection of cultures and languages and cuisines is. What parts of the country influences your food?

Mukhin: I’m inspired by the whole country. It’s a big territory, and sometimes it feels like it’s too big. I try and use different techniques and ingredients from all over the country, which I think makes my menus distinct.

We have an a la carte menu with about 50 dishes of classical Russian food. Everything looks modern because I’m a young chef. But if you close your eyes and try these dishes, you’ll taste 100% classic Russian flavors.

I want to highlight all aspects of Russian cuisine. Before the Olympic Games in Sochi, we opened a restaurant there, not just to make money, but to expose people visiting for the Olympics to Russian food. That’s why we opened The Red Fox restaurant. It’s all about Russian ingredients.

Thornburgh: Sochi, at least when I’ve been there, is like a Miami Beach. It’s like a place to get pizza and sushi, and go to the nightclubs.

Mukhin: You been?

Thornburgh: Yeah.

Mukhin: It’s crazy.

Thornburgh: It’s a little crazy, but it’s interesting to bring in Red Fox and sort of say okay, because people are coming out, let’s bring Russia to Sochi.

Mukhin: It was incredible. We had thousands of visitors at the restaurant.  

Thornburgh: So you really looked internally for inspiration. Did working outside of Russia motivate you to focus on Russian cuisine?

Mukhin: Yes. I spent time working in Avignon, France. I worked with Christian Etienne, and he would make a special Russian meal once a year.  It was crazy.

Thornburgh: How was the food?

Mukhin: It was shit. I told him that I would cook real Russian food for him, and I did. I cooked borscht, blinis, and other classics. He liked it and said that once a year we should use my recipes, but with his influence. I agreed, and we went on to make amazing food. Eventually, I wanted to come back to my motherland. So I left and I started working on making White Rabbit a reality.

Thornburgh: When people go to White Rabbit, what are they going to find?

Mukhin: Someone once told me that there is a new Russian cuisine and an old Russian cuisine. I think Russian cuisine is going through an evolution. So I hope people will come and see evolution at White Rabbit.

Thornburgh: Great. Always good to end on an invite. Thank you.

Mukhin: Thank you so much.

FEIG ELECTRONIC: Moscow-City Skyscrapers Streamline Parking Access and Control with Secure RFID

Feig electronic partners with isbc group to deploy ucode dna rfid security and parking access control solution in moscow business district.

Weilburg, Germany  — December 3,  2019  —  FEIG ELECTRONIC , a leading global supplier of radio frequency identification (RFID) readers and antennas with fifty years of industry experience, announces deployment of the UCODE DNA RFID security and parking contactless identification solution in the Moscow International Business Center, known as Moscow-City, one of the world’s largest business district projects.

The management of Moscow-City not only selected long-range, passive UHF RFID to implement in its controlled parking areas, it also chose to implement UCODE DNA , the highest form of secure RAIN RFID technology, developed by NXP Semiconductors.

“Underscoring NXP’s innovation and leadership in developing advanced RAIN RFID technologies, our UCODE DNA was chosen to be incorporated with the FEIG and ISBC implementation of the contactless identification system in the prestigious Moscow-City,” said Mahdi Mekic, marketing director for RAIN RFID with NXP Semiconductors. “This exciting project represents yet another successful deployment of NXP’s contactless portfolio, and showcases our continued ability to meet the high-security requirements of highly demanding applications without compromising user convenience.”

“UCODE DNA is considered the only identification technology to match the physical protection of a barrier with the cybersecurity necessary to truly protect entrances from unauthorized access,” said Manuel Haertlé, senior product manager for FEIG Electronic. “As a respected contactless payment technology company, FEIG applies security know-how from its payment terminals, which are fully certified according to the latest high-class security standards, into our RFID systems. FEIG vehicle access control RFID readers incorporate advanced secure key storage elements, supporting various methods for secure key injection.”

FEIG’s partner ISBC Group provided the knowledge and support for this successful implementation using  FEIG’s long-range UHF RFID . The resulting system enables authorized vehicle entry into areas reserved for private residential use or corporate tenants, while also allowing availability of temporary, fee-based visitor parking. Thanks to the cryptographic authentication of UCODE DNA, both the tag and reader must go through an authentication procedure before the reader will validate the data from the tag, which is transmitted wirelessly. This level of authentication is typically used in the most secure data communication networks.

“The system’s two-step authentication means that only authorized equipment can handle the secure protocol and the data exchange with the UCODE DNA based tag. Without the required cryptographic secrets, other readers would query the tag in vain, because the tag’s response cannot be interpreted or understood,” said Andrey Krasovskiy, director of the RFID department at ISBC Group. “On top of this, each data exchange in the authentication process is unique, so even if a malicious actor were to intercept the communication, the transmission is only good for a single exchange and the tag’s unique identity is protected from cloning.”

Established in 1992 and still growing, Moscow-City is the revitalization and transformation of an industrial riverfront into a new, modern, vibrant and upscale business and residential district. A mix of residential, hotel, office, retail and entertainment facilities, it is located about four kilometers west of Red Square along the Moscow River. Twelve of the twenty-three planned facilities have already been completed, with seven currently under construction. Six skyscrapers in Moscow-City reach a height of at least 300 meters, including Europe’s tallest building, Federation Tower, which rises more than 100 stories.

Partnering with ISBC and deploying FEIG Electronic RFID solutions, the Moscow International Business Center is delivering security and access control to its city center today, as it grows into the city of tomorrow.
