Default Hesitation during light trottle acceleration or my car does not want to go slow ...

Using light throttle (say 1/6 of full) I can always make the car hesitate as if I was letting on and off the gas but if I give a little more then car will go without a problem. Is this the nature of the drive-by-wire or could something be wrong ?

Thanks for the input.

Default

IF you're chipped you may want to make sure your throttle adaption is adapted properly

Default It is normal, it happens to me all the time, I am stock (M)

It definitely has something to do with the drive by wire, but I think it is just the turbos causing the lag. When I am 1/6 throttle, if I just lift up a little while still under throttle, the turbos spin down and it feels like I came all off the throttle, it is normal.

Default My TT used to surge under light throttle, this was due

to the blown diverter valve. Anybody heard of this symptom on an S4?
