Did you catch the brake pedal at the same time as the throttle pedal?

According to the bible that is rave, the throttle position is recalibrate each each ignition cycle.

Wonder if it thought it was about to be in a crash and cut the fuel...... Possibly a system somewhere for that? There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

This happened again last night. Same as before, when I was braking, accelerating and braking in quick succession to try and stop the onset of front driver's side wheel squeal. Disconcerting when it happens but it does seem like a vehicle defence mechanism of sorts. Cleared the fault in seconds with the IID tool. |

Don't get me wrong, I didn't fear much wrong with the car to make it shut down other than the give her a break conclusion... Or new pair of brakes [pads]

This is why we've gotten into this field in the first place, I wouldn't leave without one myself! |

Couldn't agree more Pat. Can't believe I didn't get an IID tool sooner. Also a worthy reminder to carry it in the car which unless having read Cam Tech Craig's previous post about doing just that, I would have stored mine in my garage.

Spot on, the regular IIDTool still has its place even with the BT offering. It does feel at home in your glovebox, maybe I should add a note in the user manual!

My IID never leaves the door pocket, unless it's being used |
