Question

Thought about asking this for a while.

When I floor/back off I can hear a 'click' think it's coming from a switch near/under acell pedal.

So the question is:

What is the switch for? guess it's something to do with cutting boost?

any takers?

Cool

are you sure it's not your ankle bone clicking? Is yours an import? Possibly a previous owner may have fitted a switch for some gizmo or other... Click could be something mechanical in the throttle linkage.

Cruise control may require a switch here...

Its the Inertial Dampers cutting in.

If it failed, you would be a thin film of tissue, spread all over the back of the car

Moary,
don't think my ankles click that much Tis an import so it could be some fancy gizmo, god knows there are enough additional switches to make it fell like the enterprise!

Pete:
lol! thought that might be why warp 9.9 could not be achived, my warp gauge only seems to be marked to 2.0, and usually only ever gets to a max of about 0.9, which is a pity!
