Wow, that is one hell of a lucky accident : )

Glad the 7 is still running. How did the cruise control cable manage to get pulled? It's located near the firewall on the passenger side?

i have no idea...the cruse control was my guess all along, but i also thought it was on the driver side. yea it really puzzled me. now i have a good excuse to get an alignment after 2 months on new struts and springs haha.

I was going to come in here and say it might be a vacuum leak because a similar situation happened to me immediately following an accident. Glad you fixed it!
