Surging throttle from start
Edit: I forget this forum doesn't have car info, it's an '08 48i. Last edited by absentmathis; 06-04-2016 at 10:25 PM. |

Don't have an answer for you but I'm also in Charlotte - take it over to Eurocars on Mint Street and let them look at it.

Remove the fuse to your 4x4 to rule out the transfer case. Bad clutches in the transfer case can sometimes do this.

Both of the above two are good suggestions. I think so on the throttle but will have that done. On the transfer case note - I'm especially intrigued because I've wondered about it for another reason...I've got newer tires on the back and rolling diameter is different front to rear. Can't figure why that in particular would chase my problem, but maybe clutches could.

Do you have instructions on how to do this?

If the problem started after the new tires then that is likely the problem. Different diameters between the front and back could cause problems in the long term wearing out the clutches.

No, the problem existed before I replaced the rear tires. Fronts and rears wearing differently is also pretty darn common. I have a hard time believing that could be the cause.

I've noticed this with my 08 4.8 also. Thought it was my imagination at first, but I've noticed it more and more. Another thing, when I switch over to "manual" mode, it's not as bad. What is the Throttle Adaptation Reset LeiZ speaks of?

same here. 08 4.8
have to initial tip into throttle smoothly and gradually. otherwise very abrupt. so either I go gingerly or 3/4 throttle from a stop it's my wife's ride so I rarely drive it but when I do it is very noticable |
