It refers to the drive by wire throttle system being faulty.
It could be a stuck/faulty brake light switch, faulty pedal sensor, faulty throttle body sensor or a fault with the traction control system.
It usually means a trip to a garage to get a diagnosis and repair.I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....
(except air quality and Medical Science)
