Engine revs dropping when braking

don't want to shanghi this thread or muddy the waters, but does the ecu increase revs slightly when clutch is pressed when car is moving at above say 20mph, in expectation of a down ward gear change??  have noticed this happening, and easy to achieve with ecu control, or it may be my big feet!

Its some electronic unicorn magic that holds revs steady in an effort to make gearchanges more smooth on most HDis (haven't seen one without) and some of the other models. on cars fitted with Cruise, its one of the automatic disengage inputs, (as is braking) for the CC

I dunno if it does it on the HDi but I know some VAG models and other cars will restrict revs if the clutch is depressed to say 3250 or something to protect the engine, don't think Peugeot do this on our cars.

when you look at it you will see what I mean about it being clipped in, its a ribbed piece of tube that just slides into position via a little clip.. mine fell out and it was strange to drive to say the least.   clipped back in, engaged properly and it improved it markedly
