Cruise control ques?

Have an 04 8.

When in 6th gear and turn the cruise on around 60mph it doesn't work. Gear down into 5th and it works fine. All other gears it works no problem, only 6th.

Any insight on this problem before I take it to the dealer?

Sounds like it is busted to me. Should work in 6th at 60MPH. Mine works in 6th.

Good luck!

Get used to it. Mazda paint is not known for its impact durability.

Get the touch up paint and find a good touch up paint kit/process and enjoy.
