A VERY LIGHT touch on the pedal (engine off) would change it to 1010 but the slightest bit more and it went to 1011.
That sequence could be reversed by lifting off very carefully.

With the engine running and servo operating it was just about possible to replicate the two stages with great care. But in practice they were near-simultaneous, and I'm sure that on the road they would be.

Does anyone know what those two switches are supposed to do when set correctly, i.e. are they meant to be very slightly apart and if so which way round?

Thanks very much to both of you. I thought I was being clever when I replaced mine, by measuring how far the old one had been screwed into place. When I did the VCDS scan today, I was getting the 1010 with very little movement, but didn't get the 1011 until I pressed it much further. When I had the engine running, I was getting 1010 all the time. I lifted the pedal with my foot and it went back to 1000. That would explain why the ECUs aren't giving me full power after a gradual braking to a halt. The pedal is not releasing 100%.

Anyway, gave it a full turn, connected up and tried again. 1010 with the slightest touch and 1011 shortly after. With the engine running, same results. Haven't been out in the car yet, but just reversing it round to the front of the house felt so much freer than before.
