Hey guys.

 

A strange one, maybe not so for you guys??

 

I've noticed now and again at full throttle my throttle pedal is fighting me, by this I mean its pushing my foot back as if to say ease off!! I am not going mad, it really is mechanically push my foot back???

 

I did try a search but struggled to find anything with a real answer, mainly due to not knowing what else to type in search bar.

 

I did find this from 2002!!

I remember that one!

 

Turns out simply to be the kickdown switch at the bottom of the throttle pedal. It feel like its pushing back if you release a bit of pressure from your right foot ;)

 

Oh so that's all it is! there was me thinking it was some sort of engine saver, nice one all I need do now is sort the lack of boost issue being covered on another thread. thanks for taking the time to reply.
