Hey it randomly worked for me only after my first service though just a heads up to ppl who read the manual and searched but can't figure out why it won't work. I think you have to be pase 2000km for it to work

Hi Guys, have any of you had issues with the car creeping forwrad as you hold it at launch revs?
I have tried mine on flat roads and even on a slight incline to ensure that it's not just my imagination. Mine just seems to slightly engage drive

Any feedback from others who have used LC would be great.

That's definitely not normal and frankly doesn't make sense.

How can the car be moving forward when the clutches are clearly not engaged since if they were the car would already be launching forward?

Seems to me that it must be rolling on its own, despite it appearing that it is not.

Holding it at launch rev is prolly shaking the car a bit and causing the movement. Doubt the road it perfectly flat.

mine does the exact same thing even on level ground.

Stop it with the LC threads! There are too many of them..



If the car is rolling forward with LC activated it might have the clutch slightly engaged for a quicker start when you drop the selector.

Or you are on a completely level surface.

Can't imagine how the clutch could have any engagement with the engine spinning at such a high RPM. I think if you tried to simulate such a thing (the slow creep) in a car with a manual transmission you'd prematurely launch the car every time. Just my opinion.

So, 6MT doesn't have lunch control?

Damn, I never saw that flag in my dash board.
