Think I'll take a trip down the breakers this weekend and see if I can pick up a CC stalk.
From what model?
Will have a look at 307's, 407's, C5's etc.

managed to get hold of the pp2000 software but it won't run on win7 home. but still need the interface cable.
unfortunately... that's the expensive part.
ill be keeping my eye on ebay. some of the cheaper "copies" seem to work for some people. i know a guy on the pugscotland forum who got one from ebay, and he's been doing fine diagnosing peoples cars.
but ill need to save up a little and get the windows7 premium edition. with the XP mode, then ill be able to get PP2k up and running. set up the CC myself

PM Steve_B he will be able to tell you.
#83: Re: Cruise control Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Wed Feb 17, 2010 1:02 pm ---- the stalk without the limiter just has the on and off switch, but the limit switch allows you to set the speed of the cruise control without pressing the accelerator. i think.
ill have a look for some pics of them both, but there is visible differences
#84: Re: Cruise control Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Wed Feb 17, 2010 1:13 pm ---- CC stalk with limit switch (6242Z8)

do you know what clones in particular people have had success with?
i'm retrofitting a mux alarm soon and need it activated in the BSI which will be £49 at dealers, but if i could have a known working cable for a bit more, it'd pay for itself pretty quickly.
i've got the proper VCDS (vagcom) for my car and it's literally saved me hundreds of quid so far.
#87: Re: Cruise control Author: Guy, Location: Solihull, BirminghamPosted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 10:12 am ---- I would be up for CC meeting. I need it quite soon as possible!
#88: Re: Cruise control Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 10:56 am ---- Lol we could have a CC meet as Guy said, someone could potentially earn a fair whack doing this!
#89: Re: Cruise control Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 12:41 pm ---- all you southerners lol
ill be keeping an eye on ebay. if i can get a pugplanet2k interface cable, then ill get windows7 pro. use xp mode to get it running. if its easy enough, then ill be using my car as a guinea pig to see what else can be done.
#90: Re: Cruise control Author: Ruffy_206, Location: BristolPosted: Thu Feb 18, 2010 1:26 pm ---- cc meet. wagsy will have to convoy done and earn some dosh if he can get his working if not then do people want to meet at a location and get this done?
