Cruise Control




Hello Audi Enthusiasts:

I just bought a 1990 80 Quattro.  I love it and it has already saved my 
life.

I have a couple of questions for you all out there and perhaps you can 
answer my questions:

First, the cruise control on the car does not work.  I brought it to the 
mechanic and he looked at for about 45 minutes.  He thinks it could be a 
switch but I am not sure if it is worth it to look into more deeply.  What 
are the chances this is going to be a major undertaking and not worth the 
cash to fix?

Second, when I drive my car in the morning for about seven miles and 
eventually come to a complete stop, the idle bottoms out and the car stalls. 
 This only happens in the morning.  What is going on here.  Is this 
something that needs immediate attention or should I deal with starting it 
again after it stalls.

Third, what upgrades can I get to improve the performance of the car.  I was 
thinking chip, filter to start and then the exhaust.  Any suggestions on 
where to get the chip.  I was thinking Total Audi Performance in Florida but 
they said I would get a maximum of 10hps from the chip.  Is there anything 
better?  What manuals can I get on repair and upgrades?

Thanks you all
