540i hairpin throttle response
Hey all, I've got an 03 540i M sport with a stick. While I love the car, I find it hard to drive smoothly in the lower gears, the throttle response is hyperactive, the slightest touch of the throttle lurches the car in the lower gears. It otherwise drives well and pulls evenly.
I have driven few other stick 540's, are they all like this? I've driven slush box versions and don't recall such sensitive throttle response.
I'm starting to suspect it was flashed, or someone added an aftermarket gizmo somewhere to monkey with the pedal signal. Not even sure where to look for such a thing, above the pedal somewhere?
