looks to be only an inspection nothing more unless install was not done correctly and i am sure its not that big of an issue because i have not been told anything at work

That's what I don't get. Whether it is an inspection of existing faulty sensors, or an inspection as to whether any previously done work needs reinspection?

I will try and remember this when I go to work so I can give a better answer

It is a precautionary bulletin (the same bulletin exists for all Toyota/Lexus/Scion models with drive-by-wire pedal sensors) informing technicians not to put any lubricants or oils into the pedal sensor area. Nothing should be sprayed or applied in that area for fear that it may affect pedal readings.

Interesting. How does the throttle behave if it gets inadvertantly lubed?

I wonder if that might account for a problem in my car?

On a serious note. I would think that if lube got on the throttle sensor then the car would not know how much fuel to dump. Could be less or it could think you have the pedal floored. Erratic possibly.

(is it an FR-S)

Cade01 · 09-30-2012, 12:36 AM

From the looks of the hood, the fender markers, and the fuel door, I would say this is not an FR-S.

Iccmahn · 09-30-2012, 12:41 AM

It looks like a Tesla Roadster and not an FR-S or a BRZ.

Yruyur · 09-30-2012, 02:25 AM
