182 accelerator pedal sticking



  182
My 182's accelerator pedal has started sticking when I use the 'kick-down' switch. So when I change gear, I'm bouncing off the revs because the gas pedal is still on the floor! After a few seconds the pedal does suddenly release but still! Free fix from Renault surely???

Kick down yo!

seriously though, Is the mat catching on it?
 
  Looking for 182
I noticed that when I cleaned my floor mats the other day that the accelerator goes a little further, and almost clicks down an extra notch. Is this what you're calling the kick-down switch?

If so, what does it do? Because when my mats are in the car they block the pedal going this far.

I have a simular thing on my 200 and have been told its the switch to turn cruise control off. Mine sticks and makes a horrid click noise.

It's for when you're on the motorway sitting at 70 or whatever with the limiter on and you want to overtake.

It's that extra bit of travel that cancels the speed limiter. To use it you have to push the pedal a little harder than usual. The problem I'm having is that the pedal stays all the way down past the extra bit even when I take my foot off. Has no-one else had this problem before? I assumed it was a known issue :(
