throttle reset
In a different thread I was advised to try a throttle reset using the ignition key. Question- what does this technically do? Is the Ecu involved at all with this? Is the ecu learning your driving style and adapting the throttle response accordingly?

Anyone want to clarify how to do this correctly? I have read many variations of the procedure.. Also, is this reset "key specific"... I swear my car doesn't respond as well using my spare key... Thanks..

You'll probably have to do this throttle reset every time you start your car. It adapts very quickly once it's been reset. It's not a magic bullet.

Don't you turn the ignition to position 2 for 20 seconds, then turn the ignition off quickly without removing the key and then immediately start the car?
