Drove to work this morning, and all was well. The car was purring away nicely on cruise control. On the way home, the cruise control no longer activates at all. No warning messages, or lights on dash.
Also feel that sometimes (more often than not) today that the car feels very very sluggish. especially in 2nd gear (tiptronic). That is until you put your foot further to the floor, then suddenly its at the correct power level. Could there be an issue with the throttle position sensor? Easy to replace?
I got home, and did a VAGCOM check, and these where the messages:
Cleared the codes, then only thing that was left straight away was :
Could this be the cuase of the cruise control not working? Is the switch just the one on the brake pedal? I happen to have a spare one lying around anyway.
Any ideas?
