i have a 06 tc with 47,800 miles on it.i noticed recently that if i stomp on the gas like to get on the freeway or something just car will hesitate to respond meaning before i noticed this problem when i stomp on the gas it will react right away alomst like something is clogged......i have the Injen cai i checked the filter thats fine......it doesnt do this all the time but alot.....im thinknig the throttle body is kinda dirty or the fuel injectors needs some cleaning...

someone told me to try gumont injector cleaner see if that helps but it has under 50 miles but not sure if ill hurt to engine...

so bascially the car is slow to repsond to the full throttle..

 

throttle lag..?

it is a drive by wire system afterall..

 

try some lucas fuel treatment works pretty good....

 

ill try the lucas fuel treatment .........

 

well i got some lucas fuel treatment put it in..so far no difference maybe it takes awhile...but im thinking now the throttle cable maybe have some slack in it or somehow the throttle body itself is kinda dirty preventing it from fully opening...

i saw the drive by wire system quite expensive...i did hear it made a small difference..but my issue im having now wasnt like that few weeks ago just stating to happen...it couldnt be my MAF sensor cause the CEL would come on and the car wouldnt run right....

 

... we don't have a throttle cable....

 

the Tc comes with drive by wire.....

 

...fail?

 

^ROFL

 

yea i think my throttle cable has slack in it to.....i stomp it and then all the sudden at 3k rpms it opens up all the way......oh wait...thats my turbo spooling...muahahahaha

 

 

wat> tc are drive by wire??

 

looks like my issue is slowly disappering after 100 miles of using the lucas fuel treatment..getting back to normal..feels so good now stepping on the throttle and actually responding quick..i guess the fuel lines or filter wrer clogging up
