Car Accelerating Itself

Featured Replies

Since I have been driving the car (not long) when I put my foot say half way down on the accelerator and take it off,

sometimes the pedal carries on and the car speeds up without me touching anything

The only way to stop it is to dip the clutch and then the revs just redline and it goes back to idle

Any ideas? this is on a G40

Officer: "Whats your reason for speeding sir?"

You: "I actually wasn't, it was the car!"

Officer: "Oh, well in that case have a good day!"

Throttle cable sticking

well i thought it might be the throttle body as someone has piked it

So I have just switched that over but it appears I have a boost leak which I can't find

Just doesn't seem to be as much pressure going through the pipes as other G40's I've had

I need to test it but need to find boost leak too
