Re: c5 tps
If its the accelerator pedal you are referring to, there is a slight delay in response because its an electronically controlled engine, whether you can adjust the position I'm afraid I don't know but I am sure someone who does will be along soon.

hi its not the delay its the movement in the peddle before anything happens 1 to 2 inches of peddle movement before anything will happen. i know on the xsara its on the bulkhead and you just remove the slack from the cable. the problem is i cant find this one. thanks for your help

I think the 2.2 mk1 was under the airbox and often needed slack taken out. 2.0 might be the same.
A garage did mine as I got scared trying to take out the airbox. Took them 5 mins I think

Re: c5 tps
anything less than 2inch of useless free play on the throttle would be great
