yah, it could be a number of things, just take it to the dealer for the time being.

Let us know what they find out.

What sucks is that I have had TERRIBLE experience with this dealer in the past. I will maintain a stern "don't f*ck it up" attitude and see where it gets me.

The pedal shouldn't have an particular feel as it is just a potentiometer and a spring.

It would seem as though the start up tune is off due to a faulty sensor and the car is running a bit too lean. They might ask that the car be kept overnight to reproduce the problem.

well i dropped it off at 11 as instructed, but was informed they will call me at about 2 o clock. So there i sat looking for rides back to work when finally they offered a shuttle back..the shuttle gets here and the man driving smelled heavily of alcohol...sigh
