| When it's active you use it more than you think you would. Unlike the old system where you had to be in an uphill grade. It will do it anytime the clutch and brake are depressed enough. | |

| At first I hated the Hill assist on my STI. After a month or so of driving I've "relearned" to drive a manual transmission and actually like the hill assist. It is definetly something that takes a little getting use to. Learning to use the brake pedal in a softer pressure on incline starts is a big help. | |
