Annoying brake behaviour when creeping forward

[frankvb]

When driving on city streets with autopllot enabled (only adaptive cruise control), and stopping behind another car e.g. in front of a traffic light, the distance to the car in front is way too large. So what I do (as with any other car I had with adaptive cruise) is nudge the accelerator to move closer. That leads to what seems to be the brake pedal modulating in and out and making a loud metal clicking noise. As well, it seems the brake is very forcefully applied when letting go of the accelerator, forcing an abrupt stop.

Do others have the same experience?

BTW: setting is at 'creep'

Just curiously, have you adjusted your following distance on the wheel?

Same. And I use Hold...

Yes, it's set to the lowest value. Need that here in SoCal to avoid other drivers filling up the gap...

Yes, it happens on both of our Y's and previously happened on both of our 3's. Unfortunately, it's working as designed. Hopefully a software update will make things better at some point.

Thanks, good to know it's not a unique problem. Still it could work quite a bit smoother than it does now.
