What is your question?
I go and start up my car and as I'm driving, the engine light comes on, the screen on the odometer says "Cruise Control Not Available", I cannot pass more than 3000 RPM's and the car bucks everytime I get to to 3000. As soon as I make 55 mph it turns off and when I slow down or come to a stop for a moment, it comes on again. Please help? and whats wrong and price to fix? My car has a lot of problems and I want to get these fixed.

Good news, first thing to fix is the throttle body gaskets. On my 3.0 there are 2 of them on the top, right, rear of the intake, you can't miss them. An 8mm socket is all you need. The top O-Ring goes on from behind, the bottom one will need to be stretched over the outside carefully so you don't break it. Thats it. Oh, they cost about $20 on Ebay. Its a 15 min job and you barely get your hands dirty. The top one opens up a valve to allow more air at 3000rpm and the bottom one opens at 5000rpm. Also, these cars have a "limp home mode" that basically allows the car to run, but without any performance, until you fix the problem(s). This is a computer thing. Good luck.
you need to have it ck'd to determine problem. these all have alot of issues in my opinion.have codes scanned and post
