Throttle Linkage and response..

[damoace]

Was perusing the the manual earlier. It seems there is a relay/circuit in the underbonnet PDU for a "Throttle-Relaxer"?!?!?!?. Now I dunno about anybody else but I could do with free-ing the pedal up a bit.

Whats the general level of knowldge on this? Is the 05 VXR a fly by wire or straight cable? is there a damper on the linkage? (dont laugh- you'd be surprised how many cars have one) or,in the case of FBW some binary tweeking in the firmware somehow to decrease the pedal resistance.... I must admit, I have not looked yet, so feel free to deride/applaude/throw fruit at the whole idea...

I think this is the fuse for the throttle override which comes into play when the traction control kicks in

All I know is all 05 Monaros have FBW throttles. Sounds like it is something to do with TC possibly - I guess Caspy might be able to elucidate further?
