New installation period for the additional installation of a speed control governor for Sharan/Alhambra starting from mod.2001.Einfach turn signal switch exchange and wires with GRA switch connect and to the engine expensive equipment attach-attaching one copy of the original circuit diagram settle I. Afterwards only if necessarily engine expensive equipment de-energise let-letting let-leaving will with VAG make-put mostly free of charge a guidance to to de-energise with VAG with thereby it there fast geht.Und now can that there slide to go loosely.

 

which seems to be a replacement indicator switch and a wiring loom which will give you cruise control once wired in

I think it all depends if you have a drive by wire accelerator i.e. nop throttle cable. If you don't have a throttle cable then you can, if you do have a conventional throttle cable then you can't.

IIRC some of the others on here have stated that *some* petrol models also have the drive by wire.

True, on the MK2 's the VR6 and TDI are electronic cruise, on the 2ltr and 2.3 its still a vacuum operated system, where as on the MK1's it's only the TDI's that have electronicly operated cruise control

but I'm not sure on what system is used on the 1.8 T engine?
