How did you disable your kick down please? It's the only thing I really dislike about my w204. I just don't get why it wants to rev so high where there's no power. Can the kick down be disabled without forking out for one of these pedal tuning boxes?Lol , I didn't known that , I disabled mine as it would do a screaming double gear drop on a engine that makes peak torque 1600-1800 rpm and peak power 4250 rpm and even more pointless as peak power is now at 3500 .
Now only drops one gear .
Throttle pedal lag cure .

What throttle body are we talking about here? I thought the discussion was around diesel engines.

Ive had a cla 220d shooting brake from new 2018 manual no lag no delay and kickdown?? Lost meHorrendous lag.
It's also a manual, and they opted to keep the same pedal for the manual as they have the auto - so I have "kickdown" on the pedal.
Interesting idea. The embarrassing 2-gear kickdown on WOT has my poor little C180 1.6 screaming its nuts off way past the peak torque revs. It's the reason I tend to keep the gearbox in sport mode; you generally seem to only get a one gear drop when you floor it.Disabling WOT double gear kickdown outerspace revs is nothing to do with these throttle controllers .
Simply add a small strip of firm 10mm thick foam to the pedal base to limit travel thus not trigger WOT kickdown . I trialled first then stuck in place with a silicone adhesive sealant .
On my car, kickdown pushes you up to around the 5-5500rpm mark. The graph says it all........

Hi gazLol , I didn't known that , I disabled mine as it would do a screaming double gear drop on a engine that makes peak torque 1600-1800 rpm and peak power 4250 rpm and even more pointless as peak power is now at 3500 .

Throttle pedal lag cure .
Yes , none .
Hot egr inert gasses are bad for diesel compression combustion that causes incomplete fuel molecule combustion .
The hot egr gasses can even burn through the OM651's plastic inlet manifold !
Other benefits too .
