Vaccum style, what usually goes bad on those units? Switch is functioning, it's got to be the actuator or the computer.



Any ideas? I scrapped it on my AE, but would like to have everything correct on the vert.

vaccum style? wtf? I thought they all measured off the speedometer. Maybe it's different for S4 cars.



I for one like the cruise control. I can set 120 kph... use the safc and my techedge wideband and run her at 15.5 : 1 AFR to max fuel mileage.

Well it runs off the speedo, but the vacuum is used to make the adjustments. if that makes sense.



They are definetely different computers for na and t2.



It's strange, I don't really use it, but I want this car to be pretty strait up.
