does the holding down accelertor for 10 seconds at start up actually work to reset cam phasers? I have herd a few stories about people doing this and the car starts and revs its tits off?

also why would you need to do this? should they not automatically adjust when driven?

cheers

the cams constantly adjust themselves to the required position

car should not start at all if the accelerator is held all the way down

My BA starts with the accelerator held down. Is this a problem?

I've had a starting issue for awhile now, it cranks for a long time before firing up, possibly the same issue.

Had it retuned several time but still didn't fix it
