I took my 2003 Passat in for "engine light" service a few weeks ago. They apparantly replaced one of the ignition coils. Ran great until this past week.
Then not only did it suddenly develop bouts of "sluggishness" (poor accelleration, rougher idle), the cruise control doesn't work.
While I wait for the service appointment, does this sound like anything in particular? I was a bit surprised that they both went out at about the same time.
