Ok guys, this is my first post. First a little about myself. I have been a ASE master tech since 1998, have engineering background. I recently purchased a GTI and thought I would get involved . I have been reading about all this dreaded throttle delay, it is not drive by wire delay. I have been logging this and it is the actual design of the throttle angle sensors inside the pedal. we have several potentiometers in the pedal, accelerator pedal position, pedal sender angle(potentiometer1) pedal sender angle (potentiometer 2). During a log of the readings of all the potentiometers there is no response of one of them untill the other 2 are ( one at 18% and the second at 9%, half readings between these two) The delay is that single potentiometer having a dead spot due to a design flaw. I will be building ( fixing) VW's mistake and possibly bring into production new pedal sensors that are fixed. Before this I have to see any possible liabilities for me and from there I will start the production. Possibly will get into custom intake pipes, custom down pipes. First is first, fix what is broken. If any one has a source for some pedal position sensors laying around for beta test please PM me. Thanks.
