2002 questions?
2002 questions?
I have a 2002 Q that has 6300 miles on her. I have an appointment at AtlanticIinfinity for service and have noticed a small performance problem. She seems to be stumbling for lack of a better term when applying throttle. When I give it gas the car seems to not respond for a 1/2 second or so and than it is fine. It is like there is a delay between me applying gas and the car responding. Any ideas or is this normal? Also does anybody know the weight of a 2002 factory 18 in rim that comes with the premium package?Thanks!
There are two fixes.
1) A new accelerator pedal is installed with no springs. The gas pedal will then move instantly with no play like it does now.

2) The 2nd fix I'm having done as we speak while they are trying to fix my vibration issue. See my post at the top here. I'm curious if you have this issue.
The TCM (transmission control module) and ECM (engine control module) are replaced with tweaked versions for better acceleration when mashing the throttle to fix delay. I've spoken with a few people who said it made a DRAMATIC difference. The shop foreman just called me after his test drive and said it's "noticeably quicker".

Hope this helps,
