Hi guys,
This is to do with my wifes clio mk1 automatic (as I sold my solid blue valver for a rusted jap car lol.. kinda miss it now!). The pedal is just "clicking" and then hitting the floor and stays down. I can replicate the problem in the engine bay by just pulling on the cable (when the engine is off).
There appears to be some sort of damper unit on the throttle cable with some form of vacuum/pressure tube(?) coming off it. Just wondering if anyone else has had these problems and knows if a new throttle cable will sort it out, as it is getting dangerous to drive like this for her. (She needs the car as she is a mobile care worker 7 days a week).
Thanks guys,
Matthew
