I think that I'll do a fair bit of testing the readings first with VCDS, especially when the engine is cold. Can't remember exactly what I was looking at before, but I suspect I got the Throttle and Pedal sensor readings confused as I vaguely recall looking at the ones that went in opposite directions, 0-100 and 100-0. The pedal sensors are the ones where one is double the other, 0-100 and 0-50.
To say the least! It's one of those jobs that once you start on it, you don't want to stop. Awkward getting in, awkward getting out, tight space, and if you drop something, chances are you have to clamber out in order to get at it.

I thought I read somewhere that it was the one with the 1-100 and 100-0 ranges, and some checking that both added to 100, so giving an accurate reading, with anything less giving reduced throttle.
