Throttle delay?

[Damo_Sport]

Hey dunno if this is normal or not

When say when i pull away and i apply the throttle it takes roughly 1 sec to respond :S is this nromal?

No. A second is a long time.

FBW throttle is slow but not that slow.

 

[Damo_Sport]

well maybe a sec is lying a bit, but its not instant :S

Mine does this too. If you tap the throttle, you can get your foot off the pedal before it does anything :s

Believe it's because it's electronic (but it's normal)...

When in neutral or clutch in? There is a slight delay.

Remap get's rid of it . Also gets rid of the jerky cold start too.

RS Clio's have always been praised for the throttle response and adjustabilty with the throttle but the DBW system is seen to be the spawn of the devil by most on here.

you mean when you blip the throttle out of gear from standing ?

Not sure of this is aimed at me or not but..

All the time, but you can kinda 'test' it in this situation.

as said if it has always done it, then its the nature of the electronic throttle. cable ones aren't as bad. You shouldn't get any delay while driving through the gears though really.
