Auto dipping was pretty hopeless in the D4,I always had it turned off.Originally Posted by ozscott
As an example,in a rural area,truck coming towards us,up a hill.
The driver is well blinded by our high beam before the headlights of the truck appear,over the hill.It would only switch to low beam once the headlights of the other vehicle appeared.Not great at all.
Maybe it was better in later models,I don’t know,but it works excellently in the Cruiser.It will change to low much earlier.

Correction - it does, not that I've noticed it in normal driving but with ACC set at 100 kph heading downhill and holding the decrease speed button will trigger significant braking by the time the set speed is down to about 80 kph. Autonomous braking and stop/go have been enabled in the CCF as well as adaptive cruise.

Does it change down a cog or two as well,that is use engine braking to help slow down as some of the Jap vehicles do?
The D4 just ran away down hills, going down a cog or two while on CC would have helped significantly.

It didn't appear to down-shift on the test but I can't be sure that it didn't.

Our Mazda definitely downshifts.
