Spongy go faster pedal. :(
Car:- 2002 Conny diesel auto.
I can "blip" my throttle pedal without the engine responding, in fact it seems to be lagging a lot lately, it can't be the turbo because if the engine is slow to respond, ipso facto so will the turbo be.....  As it's a fly by wire system I don't know the cure, can anyone help please? Thank you...  ... |

Hows performance overall?
I can't think of what could cause slow revving - but if it seems like you aren't getting 100% throttle there is an (easy) procedure to recalibrate it. |

Once the engine "wakes up" it goes very very well, but it needs a good boot to get it going...

Do you get any smoke? Could be a boost issue - or lack thereof! I blew a hose off a week or two ago and the symptoms were similar. Including the inability to top 60 uphill! |

No abnormal smoke...
The engine works fine, in or out of gear, it is just slow to respond to the pedal. On a wired pedal I would be taking up the slack... ... |

Do you have any kind of diagnostic equipment? A ScanGauge or ELM327 clone will throw live TPS readings.
Irrespective of whether it's the issue - you can recalibrate easily to see if it helps - http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=109638 |
