Fix faulty X1 E84 cruise control

My cruise control intermittently and randomly steps in when I change gear between 3rd, 4th and 5th. This is annoying - corrected instantly by flicking lever, but potentially unsafe. Two questions please:
- Can this be fixed by the garage without excessive cost?
- Is there a way that I can disable the cruise control to remove the annoyance?

Red face Embarrassing visit to garage

Took my X1 to the garage today for service and MOT, and mentioned my issue with the cruise control.

Issue was successfully diagnosed; fix: move driver's seat further back! Due to my long legs, my knee was knocking the steering column control stalk when I changed gear.

Easy to miss an obvious cause ......
