Delay on accelerating

[bigal]

My wife's Executive feels like the accelerator cable is on a spring. You can put you foot down and there is a delay before taking off. I've sussed it out but the service dept says its within tolerance. Its very annoying to the point I refuse to drive. I've put the car sideways on a couple of occasions because I've put the foot down too hard. Anyone else had this problem?

Cheers, Big Al

Its the drive by wire throttle control combined with torque management.

Is there anything I can do about it?
My VS ute is nothing like that, it is very responsive.

your ute will be like that cos its cable driving instead of electronically

Now there's the problem 'cable driven'. Try cable 'activated'.
