ND Hill Launch Assist problems
Posted: Sun Jan 24, 2016 7:23 pm
Hi Guys,
Not sure whether what I have is a problem on the ND or just on my car.
The HLA (Hill Launch Assist), which should stop me rolling back while facing up hill but allow me to move forward, stops me moving forward as well. As the clutch engages, the engine just slows until the timer expires. This is particularly frustrating on slight grades, where it's unpredictable whether the car will let me move off straight away, or whether it will hod the brake on. My son (who has Subaru's hill start assist in his Impreza) managed to stall the ND on one hill.
Have any of you other ND owners had trouble with this?
Does anyone know how to disable this "feature"?
