Hi Jim - Well - took the fastback on a cruise - about 70 miles round-trip - almost all highway. Throughout the trip - no evidence of the "bucking" or "bogging down" reported on my previous trips from work to home. It may, or may not, be related, but I did note that I could not keep the car at constant highway speed (65-70 mph) at (near as I could tell) constant pedal depress. I'd keep my foot steady against the tunnel once I'd get to about 70 mph, but then the car would start to slow down - settling down at around 55 mph. If I kept blipping the gas pedal, the engine would rev and I'd be back up to 65-70 mph. Would this be indicative of a problem with the throttle sensor? Thanks for your help and advice on this.
