Throttle Cable Hard Won't Let Pedal Go All the Way? I've owned my SS for about 3 weeks now. AT least 3 times I have jumped in it and the gas pedal felt hard, wouldn't go all the way down. You could drive it but it wouldn't go past about 2000 rpm's. Is this just the cable? or maybe something else? You can rev it hard to about 5k and then it's ok. Feels like it's binding, but under the hood looks ok. Could it be something associated with the cruise? Thanks Brandon.

yea man, your traction control is on. if you spin wheels when traction control is on, your pedal kicks up and stiffens making it impossible to push down. take off your traction control (the switch that says ASR) and you'll be able to light 'em up 'til you run outta rubber.

Yeah I have traction control, but I wasn't getting on it, just driving like a grandpa. It sticks or something. I mean if you just running 20 mph. Easy on it, it sometimes feels like it binds, but if you stomp the pedal, with the clutch in, then it frees up. Thanks.
