    [RS4 b5] Gas throttle stuck

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Today, when i was driving, my throttle kept open the moment i released my foot from the gas. It only happend for a second, and ofcourse nothing serious happend.

    BUT, since the RS4's / S4's are equipped with a electronic throttle body, how the hell is that possible? Is that sensor becoming old?

    Could be old age, i had a TB go bad, didnt stay open but would accelerate erratically.
    the B5 S4 is like the mafia... there is only one way out!
