ACC + auto idle stop requires manual acceleration to wake up
The RDX has been my first car with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and I really like it with the stop-and-go traffic in Seattle. Unfortunately, I've noticed a "quirk" that isn't documented in the manual or mentioned here on the boards yet: If ACC is enabled and auto idle stop kicks in when all traffic is stopped, then when the car in front me starts again, I'm still not moving! I have to manually push the accelerator to wake it up and get going. Having to do this every time during stop-and-go traffic is no fun. Is anyone else having this issue? I guess in the meantime, I can just disable auto idle stop. Thanks.

Since then, I simply don’t combine stuff. If I am on the highway, and I put ACC on, idle stop and brake hold are off. If brake hold is on, idle is off, and vice versa. They are easy enough to turn on and off, but can be unpredictable if more than one is on at a time.

I have tried also "Brake Hold", it works and once the car completely stopped, I no longer need to hold the brake peddle. But, it is too weird for me (especially using it with ACC), so I have stopped using it.

I'm with you on this one. Brake hold just feels WRONG to me so I don't use it either. With multiple vehicles in the family I feel it would become easy for use of the feature to become habit and not having it in all vehicles could result in an 'unhappy' experience under the right circumstances. JMO

Pardon my ignorance, but you guys are running ACC while city driving? I thought it was designed for highway. The car actually slows, gently, to a stop while in city traffic? I didn't think it engaged until 25 mph, according to the documentation I've seen.

Yes, It will slow the car to a complete stop, then resume back to preset speed,keeping the preset distance from the leading car. You can't actually set the speed at a seed lower than 25mph, but the ACC will bring ti down to 0 and back up again in stop and go traffic. Hope this helps.
