Hey all.

I noticed driving my 03 SS, that I'm getting a slight surge from the gas pedal. I remember seeing a post about something like this, but looked and cant seem to find it.

The issue is, I'll be driving along, *steady* at about 65-70mph, and I can feel the gas pedal slightly move towards the floor, I look at the speedo and the car goes to up 'bout 5mph. Whats the fix for this? Is it easy?

yah, i'm not sure what that would be, i've never seen that before.

i remember someone posting on this a while back and i didn't know what it would be then...

your saying the peddle just drops without you pushing it???

 

Could a bad speed sensor cause this?

 

i was thinking some sensor, i was thinking throttle position sensor, but it could be a speed sensor too



are you getting any codes, is your check engine light on?

 

maybe a cruise control issue?

 

...........i was thinking throttle position sensor,............

Could very well be? That's what I thoughtat first too.

If it were the cruise the car would surge and the cruise would cut off. At least that's what my car was doing last sunday.I thought the transmission went out of it? Turns out it was the speed sensor. A quick trip to the local Mopar dealer,bought two sensors for $30 and my car's all better now.

 

I found some threads on it. Seems its the start of a bad CAT? Doing more research on the matter since more then 1 person has different ideas on what it could be.

Will post more once I have a known issue/known fix for this since more thne just I have this going on.
