wanted to share this with you

After 2 kin speeding fines in 2 weeks

bought one of them cruise control kit's off evil-bay. Bit dear £59 snakes (especialy postage to gorfland) but easy to fit as all the connection leads are already there, made a hole in the the steering wheel with a heated stanley blade for the paddle thing and hey presto-job done!

Works a treat and not had a fine since

What for a TD5???

mickyg · Jul 28, 2009

yeah wondering now if the performance chip could effect it

Jason2 · Jul 28, 2009

Don't know! you can't go wrong fitting the kit as you only have to switches to plug in and the plugs are already there with the ECU already set up to work them!

Yeh! Well simple!

Only difficult bit is cutting a hole in the side of the steering wheel, I used a stanley blade heated up with a blow torch, you should get a template for the hole with the kit.Also clip the air bag wires on to the back of the wheel otherwise you run the risk of trapping them when you put the air bag back (held on by 2 torx screws)

Sorry not got a clue what you are on about

From your post:

starting to go mad now trying to get cruise control that i have just put in working checked vacuum pipes and various connections but no luck now wondering if chip that is fitted could make a differance can anybody help please or suggest anything to try

You said on my post that it was a TD5???
Thought that it was the 300tdi that used a vacuem system for the cruise control??? On the TD5 it's electronic!

i know now but dont what to try next everybody else seems to just plug and play never was lucky
