I have a C5 2.00 VTR, when I depress the pedal to speed up and change gears, the accelerator sticks at the revs it reached before changing gear. Is there an area or location I can check, grease etc. to stop this on the cable, or where is the cable located?
Thanks

we have no info on this car but try cleaning the throttleplate on both sides with choke cleaner and iac hole. you may not have a cable to throttle it is probably electric. so it may be your gas pedal sensor.
