?

I have a 2002 VW beetle. The car has started not immediately obeying the shift commands---after shifting from drive to reverse the car will initially go forward 2-3 feet before reversing direction---and visa versa. Any idea on likely cause?

My impala has intermittent AC and Cruise dropout----Neither the AC nor the cruise control work. This happens usually on startup but not always. The cruise and AC always drop out together. Both systems always come back on after 1-10 minutes or so. There is a fuse for an "AC/Cruise" circuit (none of the fuses ever burn through and they are all simple burn through fuses not the self healing kind), The manual says this circuit is for the HVAC temperature door motors and module and the cruise control module. This would seem to be the circuit in question. The dealership could not diagnose the problem as it is intermittent. I am to the point where I would like to start changing switches to see if it helps. Anyone out there who could suggest where to start with the switch changing??
