Autonomous timing of events are to fast

Did you enable the motor safety on those two motors? If you did, that will shut the motors off if you don't constantly set their values at least every 100 milliseconds. The safety is off by default on non-drive motors, and there's usually not a good reason to turn it on.

Then after about the two seconds the cylinders (frontliftCylinder and rearliftCylinder) retract for a split second and then extend.

Are the lights on the Solenoid module turning on for the appropriate amount of time, with the cylinder itself just taking a while to respond? Or do the module's lights also act for only a split second?
