okay I have a couple of minor problems first off the cruise control stopped working, the main control button lights up, however when i press the actual hold speed button nothing happens, second my car starts without the clutch being engaged, and third is after the car is warmed up the engine will idle while in neutral pulsating between 1000 and 1500

there is no check engine light on, it only happens when either the transmission is in neutral or when the clutch is engaged, and it only happens after the engine is warmed up, no other running problems
