    Braking and Delay on the accelerator

    So since I had a new job and company UTE one of those Japanese things.... I haven't drove the D4 in a few months ......sod paying for fuel


    I had a drive in the D4.............well that was fun, The wife has been driving it and usually I'm just a passenger from the pub....lol

    Things I need to do

    Make the thing stop I have forgotten how it brakes but looking to give the brakes a good refresh Disc and pads all round and flush the brake fluid out, any recommendations on brakes ( I don’t want to do the upgrade unless it fits around the stock 18 alloys

    The delay when pressing the accelerator , two thoughts fluid change on the trans (it needs this) and adaptations reset any thing else

    Cheers

    Akebono brake pads and RDA rotors make a good combo, braided lines and a caliper piston seal kit throughout will make it stop on the button.

    An EVC throttle controller makes the response on the go pedal so much better.

    Agreed, i read that you should only reset adaptions if you have changed any hardware or rebuilt the box.

    Correct, after say a valve body rebuild (new seals, solenoids, o rings and so on), you need to reset. If only doing a fluid flush then no need to reset.
