Question Sticky Throttle Pedal
2001, 3.0i...
Throttle pedal is sticky. I do not mean the engine surges, or that someone spilled a beer on the pedal... it just seems that if I have been at a steady speed and need to press down a little, it seems sticky.

I know we have a "fly-by-wire" system, but can I safely spray lubricant on the shaft without fear of interference with the electronics?

Should I try to pry out the rubber seals around the accelerator pedal shaft or what?
