The cruise control bushing is NOT available as a Type 44 separate part, but it
IS available as a V8 part.  The number is 811 907 423.

connecting rod is rotted out. I've even put in a used one in decent shape, but
the same thing happened to it. I guess it's just to hot under the hood above
the turbo. The dealer doesn't sell it apart from the entire rod, and that's
about $100. Has anyone out there found a good fix for the rotting rubber
bushing? TIA.
