Default So could it be a vacuum leak? Cruise control not working.

So, my cruise control switch started working today (weird). But what is even weirder is that when I set the speed, it maintains it for maybe 4 seconds and then completely cuts out. I can turn the control off and then back on, set the speed again, and the same exact thing happens!

Now is this a problem with the switch or could it be something else such as a vacuum leak of some sort. When it is maintaining speed for those few seconds it feels very strong so I can't believe it would be a vacuum leak. Could there be something wrong in the computer?

I have a 1999.5 Audi A4 Quattro 1.8T with 102,000 miles on it, AEB engine code (is the CC even vacuum controlled on the AEB engine, or is it just the drive-by-wire models?).

Thanks for any input,
Brian
