Stiff Throttle Pedal - r3k1355 - 21-01-2014
Recently I've been finding that on a cold morning my throttle pedal is stiff.
It certainly feels heavier to push and it also returns much slower, so much so that I have to give extra time for a gear change otherwise it's like I'm riding the clutch.
It go's away after a couple of minutes when the car warms up.
I think it's just the grease on one of the linkages thats getting cold and stiff.
Whats the best stuff to use to sort it out, do I wanna use the white grease stuff, WD-40 or what??

Its probably the cable. Have a feel of the throttle on the pump if its smooth and nice get a new cable.

Yeh itll be the lubrication in the cable.
