The throttle would stick for a bit and spring back. I thought it was a problem with the fly-by-wire stuff but after a bit of fiddling found it was the bottom the of the accelerator paddle catching on the floor mat. I had the clips in but the mat sits a bit further forward that what it should as the hoses were put in about 5mm too far forward by previous owner.Solution for me was to trim the bottom of the accelerator peddle about 10mm so that it would not catch on the edge of the floor mat. This is only possible for us that do not have the fancy paddles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not appeal, allowing lawyers to release the amount.Toyota said in a statement it was disappointed the amount had been made public."As is common in these cases, these parties agreed to keep the amount confidential, in part to protect the families from unwanted solicitations and to allow them to move on from this difficult period," the automaker said.The case was considered the strongest of hundreds of lawsuits that have since been filed and consolidated before a federal judge in Orange County over claims stemming from sudden acceleration in several Toyota models, and brake glitches with the company's Prius hybrid.Toyota and the plaintiffs sought to keep the settlement amount in the Lexus case confidential, with the automaker arguing the release of the settlement details could affect pending litigation and hurt its reputation.Superior Court Judge Anthony Mohr, however, said the public's right to the details outweighed those concerns, and he denied a motion to keep the settlement sealed.Mohr also extended a gag order until late Wednesday in order to give either side the chance to seek a stay, and up to 10 days to decide whether to pull the settlement altogether.Tim Pestotnik, a lawyer who represented the Saylor family, said his clients opted not to pursue a stay or appeal the judge's order allowing the release of the settlement amount."The families seek only privacy and peace at this time," Pestotnik said Edited 24/12/10 10:07 AM by aiboart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
