yes, there is a lag as it is drive-by-wire, maybe the computer does not react fast enough?
Yup, the electronic throttle's a little laggy. There's a 0.5s lag between you press the throttle and when it goes.
read on the 8th civic US forum, that this lag problem ia quite apparent now.Its some dws or sort is creating this accelaration lag.Apparently they want to have a petition so that they can email to Honda America to highlight this issue.Im not aware of how serious this problem since i received my car yet.but thinking abt it, i might i have experienced the lag during test drive.
Maybe we ought to create a new thread.Wonder if any other civic owners felt this lag? does it happen in both the R18 and k20a sports model??
yeah.. the lag sucks. but getting use to it. its a lil scary when ur on a hill and u stall it.
I haven't felt any lag in my VTi, but I haven't really been looking out for it.
I'm about to hit 1000kms on mine, in just over a week ;)
There is a lag, but it seems to be common on drive by wire cars.... grrr.. our euro does it as well as our Mk 5 GTI (although not as much). Unfortunately thats what happens when a computer needs to respond to what you're doing. Thats why I loved the monaro, classic throttle cable yo!
Unless the "computer" is operating on punch cards or something similar I can't see how it can be at fault. The software running on the computer may need some adjusting but there's just no way that the microchip could be causing lag between foot and engine, it would be software causing this problem and should be easily fixed.
If you're stalling going up a hill, you're doing something wrong (don't blame the car).Quote:

unless you are at a set of lights half way up the hill and waiting for it to go green, (we have some absolute bastards of hills in perth in the city). i saw some nub p plater trying to over compensate for the hill and lay down an ALMIGHTY...... *chirp* from his getz and get flagged down by a bastard ass mean cop.
edit - omg so many freaking typos
ya. its not the car. its me.Quote:
