Hello: Sounds like you have carbon build up in the throttle body, remove the air tube going to the throttle body get some carburetor cleaner, sprat it on a clean rag, clean the carbon off the throttle plate (open it with you hand) clean carbon off the walls of the throttle body. Do NOT spray Cleaner into the throttle body as if to much liquid gets in you could destroy the engine. When done Turn key on for 15 seconds shut key off for 30 seconds do this 2 more times to allow the computer to re-learn the throttle plate setting

Testimonial: "very good suggestion but i will not do the repair myself, i will pass it along to the person who will"

2003 Murano will not respond when you step on the gas pedal for 4-5 seconds and then lunges forward quickly.

Hello
The engine and transmission in this cars drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM (Power Train Control Module). Whenever a problem like this occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL THE DIAGNOSIS & TESTING IS COMPLETED.

I have a 2001 Olds Aurora. The gas pedal sticks sometimes and I have to press it hard to go. What could be causing this?

Throttle cable may be frayed,or the pedal mount may be loose,either way ,
BE SURE to correct this,if it sticks the other way,you may not be able to stop.

Sticking gas pedal

its either the throttle cable is binding or you could just loosen the clamp off the rubber intake boot. and pull it off the intake and pull open the throttle and clean the butter fly that opens and closes and see if that helps, if its really dirty with old oil carbon build up itll feel really sticky. does this help
