Its like rock hard compared to other cars. I thought it was just an NA thing, but apparently its not. Now its apparently so hard to press that cruise control doesn't really work anymore.
thanks for the help.
love,

pop the cable off the t-body and move it in and out, if its still stiff the cable could be fraying inside if not your t-body could be sticking. Either that or spend some time on a stairmaster

On a serious note lubing the throttle cable would probably help a bunch. Hold it up and spray into where the cable slides into its sheath. Also spray the spring on the throttle body where the cable attatches. Finally, spray the hing of the throttle pedal itself. It's been recommended that chain gear lube is best for this stuff.

should the 1.6 pedal feel like the NB cars? I'm worried this bitch is going to stick open.
