If cruise has stopped working that could be your brake switch playing up.
Ideally you need the car scanned for fault codes with vag com or a dealer tool

Looks brake-related to me too.

Yes I belive it does, Ken can probably confirm this.

As for the noise's the reverse noise is a common one try searching for mooing brake in the octy section

Maybe worth checkig your pads all round for wear

Re: 02 octy vrs engine managerment light

The reason I think it's brake related is that using the brakes will switch the cruise control out. It could be as easy a fix as the brake lights being stuck on, which is just a switch adjustment.

Could your noise when reversing be described as a "mooing" sound? If so, it's a well-known fault with the vRS model, but there's an official fix involving new rear brake pads. Use the search facility for "mooing" for more information on the issue that you could possibly imagine.
