It is now over 6 weeks and I have covered over 1000 miles since replacing the throttle pedal / sensor on my car. The replacement I bought from ebay had exactly the same reference numbers on the sticker, however the original pedal had a date of January 2011 and the replacement July 2011.

One thing I have noticed since replacing the throttle pedal is an increase in average fuel economy by just under 3mpg.

I am glad to hear that others are finding their problems are solved.

What does the connector look like and how many wires are involved?

There are six electrical connectors as shown



I have google searched and the throttle sensor appears to use a number of inductive proximity sensors, where the metal plate is detected by an electro-magnetic detection field produced by each sensor. A bit like a metal detector, hence there is no contact between the sensors and the metal plate.

In respect of temperature sensitivity, I bought my car last November and never noticed the fault during the winter. it wasn't until the warmer weather came along that the fault showed itself, but it could easily have just developed. Surely temperature sensitivity, if proved could rule out many potential sources for the problem.

My knowledge of physics does not extend beyond the use of google but it would be interesting to know if electro magnetic detection is or can be temperature sensitive.

Interesting, so it's a sort of duplex analogue/digital system with some sort of redundancy and fault tolerance. The only thing I can say is that when we had the hesitation problem the dealer said that there were no fault codes present.
My money is currently on LR having bought a batch of pedals in early 2011 with a few out of spec duds in there. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

So, after all these years, countless visits to clueless dealers (not in an offensive way), various experiments by members here, and it *looks* to be a problem with the throttle pedal....

Who'd have thunk it?

Getting mine from the garage tomorrow so depending on how much the clutch was, I may order a new pedal as I too suffer this.

Anyone know of Dan can offer a decent price? FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues
2019 DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental
Now greatly regret selling the Outlander. MPG of the FL2 is atrocious and so are the fuel bills. Fun though 😎
Couldn’t afford the fuel bills so back to an older Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Significantly better than I remembered it to be…

I have said this elsewhere but we had a 60 reg and an 11 reg in the family at the same time and I drove both of them. I always felt that the throttle response was very different (ie the 11 reg felt more sensitive) but I put it down to the 11 having the DPF and other engine changes for the emission regs. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

If you are fit enough - clamber into the footwell with a camera and get a photo of the sticker on your throttle pedal. It will have a date on it. I'm thinking that early 2011 was the date of the duff batch of throttle pedals. Probably all made in Mumbai on a Friday afternoon... Currently enjoying:

Oh I'm happy to pay the full £70 odd for this but as there's the potential for a lot of members on here who may want one I wonder if Dan could do something for us.

My pedal has to be late 2010 at the very oldest as the car was registered 31/12/2010. But as I say it's a 150 TD4 Facelift. FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues

I wonder if a call to LR customer services would be helpful here, perhaps a discounted offer on replacements? 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

I've had my 2014 plate now for under two weeks and loving it

I do although feel that at times, especially when cold, there is a little hesitance, or missing on occasions, tend to notice it in 1st or 2nd gears, but not seen all the time.

Perhaps it's my imagination, but just feels on occasions (Not all the time), that it misses or hesitates before finally pulling, once or twice also noticed a little spluttering, before the power smoothly;y comes in

Wasn't sure if the pedal issue was seen on 2014 models also? Thoughts appreciated

I assume you have a manual TD4 2014. I can't answer the question as my current FL2 is 2014 SD4 auto and doesn't have the problem but one thing to remember is that from MY2013 onwards there appears to have been an alignment with the Evoque production line and a lot of the electronics are therefore different pre and post 2013. Perhaps worth looking at Evoque forums for inspiration? 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
