Guest matt Guests Posted 01/01/03 11:08 AM Share Posted 01/01/03 11:08 AM Is anyone experiencing an abnormal amount of vibration through the acceleration pedal between 1700 – 2200rpm?I can’t feel any vibration under 1700rpm and once the engine has spun up past 2200rpm, the vibration vanishes. It’s just in that 500rpm range where the vibration through the acceleration pedal is evident.Seems rather odd being that the accelerator is of the drive-by-wire variety.

Does that make sense?What I"m trying to say is were you gunning it at the time, maybe traction control was kicking in? Just a wild shot in the dark anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
