4AGE touchy at low throttle

Postby Vertigo » Wed Jan 01, 2014 12:14 pm

Im going to try the TPS, but wondered if anyone else might know why my car seems to have quite a wide deadzone on low throttle? As I gradually lift my foot off, there is a point well before it should be where the engine drops to zero throttle. Makes driving around shops quite a chore..

FYI this is the solution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7jS1y70S98

Its just a case of adjusting the TPS with an ohmmeter.

That seems to be the hard complicated way of doing it.
Much faster easier and probably more accurate to check it with a voltmeter while still connected.

Wasnt that difficult at all. Pretty simple, in fact. The only problem I had was getting to the adjustment screws in my AW - had to take the throttle body off, unfortunately.
