Faulty cruise control and launch control???
« on: March 29, 2014, 10:42:13 am »
I have a 56 plate golf gti and the cruise control started playing up, if it was on and you indicated it would turn off and you couldn't turn it back on, and then it completely stopped working. Also since this has stopped working the launch control doesn't work either.

I was just wondering whether the two things were linked and what you reckon the solution could be, cheers
