You mean 1M .
You may have to take to dealer if you don't want to wait or you can try if this works.

Reset throttle response:

1) Insert the key & push the start button. (Don't touch the brake pedal & don't remove the key at any time)

2) Press & hold the accelerator down for 10 seconds.

3) Without releasing the accelerator push the start button.

4) Release the accelerator.

5) Wait a full 2 minutes.

6) Start the car normally & drive to see if it's more responsive.

Press and hold it down how far, full throttle?

FWIW - I just did this reset yesterday for grins. And I can tell a big diff off the line now and in overall throttle response.
