The cruise thing was unrelated... it was just an off topic thing... Check this thread for my solution.

I know that cant be your problem, but you might want to check your O2 sensors... also, the dealer suggested a bad intake manifold gasket could cause that problem. The tech at the dealer tested my intake manifold gaskets by spraying carb cleaner along them to see if it had any change in the way the car was running. He also unplugged my injectors one by one to check them. If you unplug one and the car still runs the same, you know that is the bad injector. A bad coil could also cause that issue.
