Seriously? This seems like a somewhat lame software implementation. How
difficult could it be to sense that the throttle is closed with no
engine load and ignore the distance sensor for idle speed calculation?
Does everybody with a Dak and a manual trans see this anomaly? Does the
MP SBEC also exhibit this characteristic?
