Default Cruise Control Malfunction?

Ok, so I notice today that my cruise control is no longer working 100%. When I push in the Set Button maybe one out of 10 times it'll actually work. Then when it does Set, if I was to increase the speed with the other button, it'll increase the speed while I'm holding it, but when I let it go, the cruise control will essentially turn off. Also, if I use the increase speed button at any point whether the Cruise Control is on or not, it'll actually increase my speed like I'm pushing down the gas pedal.

The weird thing is, my EMCS for my APR Chip works perfectly normal, i.e., I hold either of the buttons down and can scroll through programs and or TB adabt, fault code erase, etc.

What do you guys think is up?

Default Similar here. The accel feature sometimes *confuses* things

and it will stop working. Turning the car off and then on usually resets things. BTW, it sometimes throws a code, so if you have a VAG you can check. I just live with it as another Audi *feature*

Default Had a problem with resume feature. It was very flakey...

It would work about 50% of the time. Cruise control stalk was replaced under warranty.
