ays the same reaction and I never know what I'm going to get -- very frustrating. Does anyone know of a specific fix for this? (drive by wire, TCM, etc?) I tried the throttle adaptation that I read about on here but that didn't change a thing.

Thanks for any insight -- I really enjoy the car otherwise, but this is so annoying I'm considering getting rid of the car.

That's kinda vague..."throttle response woes", looks like your under warranty, try the Dealer

It will help if you apply more accelerator pedal travel, a consistent amount, each time, then back off immediately as needed after the engine responds. Then, after adaption, the response to the pedal should be more consistent.
Tentative, or only very cautions accelerator application, will result in a "jumpy" overly sensitive accelerator response, and a poor adaption fit to your driving style.
Unlike a cable operated throttle, the drive by wire throttle does not necessarily respond with a 1 to 1 ratio/relation, of throttle valve percent open relative to gas pedal position. The relative position and rate of change(D/dt), of the gas pedal motion applied by the drivers right foot, determine the amount of "torque demand" required by the driver. The resulting throttle opening in percent, and the adjustment of other torque influencing parameters like ignition timing, camshaft position and fuel injector duty cycle, are immediately varied, to best acheive the amount of engine output torque to satisfy the driver's torque demand .
