Cruise control error in Audi A4 from 2000: experience and solutions wanted

Cruise control without function

Hello everyone, I have a small problem with my Audi A4 from the year 2000 (gasoline engine, almost 100,000 km mileage). Recently the cruise control has stopped working. My last visit to the mechanic wasn't great, so I'm trying to get an idea of the problem before I go back to the garage. Have you had similar experiences, and if so, how were your visits to the garage in this regard? Many thanks in advance for your help! VG

Hi, I actually had a similar problem with my 2003 Audi A6. In my case it was a defect in the control unit that affected the cruise control function. It was more of a technical problem than a serious one, but it was definitely annoying. The last time I went to the garage they replaced the control unit and since then everything has worked as expected. It's no fun, but I think you may have to look in that direction too. Good luck!

Hi, thanks for your reply! It's good to hear that it wasn't a big problem for you. Do you happen to remember how much it cost you to have the control unit replaced? And have you had any other problems with the cruise control or the car in general since then? Looking forward to your answer! VG

Hello, I'm glad that my answer has helped! Well, it cost me €1000 to replace the control unit, which was of course a lot of money, but what can you do when it's broken? The good news is that the cruise control has been working perfectly since my visit to the mechanic. No more problems, neither with the cruise control nor with the car in general. So I think it was worth the money. Hope this helps you! Good luck!

Hello, thank you very much for the detailed answer and the cost information. It's a hefty sum, but if it solves the problem for good, I'm prepared to make the investment. Good to hear that everything has been running smoothly for you since then. I will now take my car to the garage and hope it works as well for me as it did for you. Thanks again for your help! VG
