Throttle response gti....oh my god moment

It feels a bit aggressive at first but stick with it and you will soon get the hang of it.

I have mine on Sport with 3 green lights.  That's the yellow PROG light plus 3 greens.

I'll try the setting you're using tomorrow Rebecca, it may suit my driving style better.

I took my pedal box off my GTD and put it on Mrs P3's GTI.
She's not really interested in cars so I thought I was wasting my time.
I said to her the other day I had put the settings down a notch to Sport+ and one light rather than two.
You would think I'd told her Christmas was cancelled 

Obviously likes driving it more than she's letting on.

Worth trying a few different settings kalimon.  I started off on Sport and 0 or 1 green light, then moved to 2 greens, now on 3.  If you start off nearly at full whack, leaves you nowhere to go, lol.  Whatever you choose, avoid the max setting of Sport + and 3 greens.  There is a warning that max setting can cause car to go into LIMP mode which is exactly what happened to the guy who had the box I now have on his.

What have people told their insurance companies regarding the pedal box? Do most know what they are/do?

I haven't bought one yet but have run it passed my insurer, Direct Line. They were fine with it so long as I declared it but would not charge any extra as it doesn't increase the engine's power.

My insurance was fine too, no extra charge

I would say Rebecca advice is spot on,  I have tried it on sport+ and three lights for a week but decided it wasnt worth the risk of a limp mode, back to sport+ and two lights...I love this setting.

If you try the settings for a week or so and then turn the pedal box of for a drive it really feels like disappointment, I really dont know why vw have not done something similar with the eco normal and sport settings because that woul cater for us all.

Insurance company were fine with it once I explained what it did.
