    Removing the accelerator pedal

    Does anyone know how to do this? Also is there some kind of switch that is pressed when the accelerator is closed or does the ECU just rely on the POT being fully closed (what I'm assuming is a POT)? The reason I ask this is my car idles quite high (1.25 - 1.5k) when you start it up - cold...
  3. Squeaking when using accelerator

    Whenever I depress or release the accelerator pedal I get a squeaking noise. This only started happening a couple of days ago, so I have a feeling its to do with the ridiculously cold weather. Has anyone else had this or have any idea as to what it could be? Thanks, Oli

    TT accelerator pedal

    Fitted clutch and brake pedals no problem from my old mk2, but the accerleratlor pedal seems to be different. I have part number 8N1 721 6478. This fitted fine to my mk2, but on my FR it seems the pedal is all part of the actual assembly. Do I have the RHD or the LHD and what is actually needed?

  11. Accelerator Pedal.

    Hi all, last Christmas, within a couple of days of having a service (probably about 80k) the accelerator pedal stopped working on the motorway - lost engine power, it sat at 1200 rpm, would work for a couple of mins after turning the engine off then go wrong again. With the help of the AA...

    Accelerator pedal question...

    OK, I took a mate for a burn in my Leon Cupra R today and he was looking round making comments on bits he liked and things he wasnt so keen on... Anyhow he said "Oh I see you've still got the 'running in' block under the pedal..." and pointed to a little grey tube that's on the floor...
