Hope to have it fixed, its impossible to drive with the current stickyness, its jamming all the time.
If it's really jamming, then I think you should look at the cruise control! I have experienced a bit of jamming on our car, but only when I have just used the cruise control. Releasing the throttle pedal slightly cures the jam, and then the pedal moves freely again. I think it's the cruise control where a vacuum valve gets stuck or something. While the actuator pulling the throttle itself is easily accessible, the rest of the system is buried below the engine, so I have learnt to live with this small problem. For you, however, it sounds like it's more of a problem. Where in the world do you live? PS: I'm splitting the topic now.

Hi Anders Im from Danmark like you, we talked about the "tandrem" through email some weeks ago. Cheers, and thanks for your suggestions, but im still interested in finding out what solved José problems with his sticky pedal. Thanks

Hello! Hi José
I have a Grand Espace 3.0 V6 24V with a sluggish speeder cable, What did the workshop do to your car with the mentioned problem you described as..
Check stiffness in accelarator pedal: done!. Now it is smooth
My workshop has changed the speeder cable but with absolutely no result, and now the are talking about a sticky throttle valve. Could that be the solution here?
Ive read Anders post about the sticky speeder cable, and ive allso tried what he suggested, but for me with no positive result.
Give a hint back here, thanks :-)
Thanks
Well, sorry, I know I am a bit late but, as far as I know, they just CLEANED and LUBRICATED the throttle mechanism. Now it is perfectly smooth In my case, I checked previously disconnecting the rod from the cruise control and it didn't make a difference. But, of course, any stiffness there would cause problems in the throttle. Best regards, JOSE
