i am having this wierd sort of surging problem that occurs when i am at low speeds (around 30-40 mph). say i am coming to a stop light> let off the accelerator, then the light turns green, > lightly apply the accelerator and then this wierd surging occurs until over 1/8th accelerator is applied. has anyone had this problem and is there a solution. i have had the car serviced @ 60K. and still it has the problems. thanx in advance. 1995 SC 400

...it will surge and like the gas cuts in and out. and will continue to do so until either you release to (1/16 haha) or you further press the pedal. dont know what it could be, nor how to solve it.

Try doing it with the VSC button OFF

VSC = Vehicle Skid Controler.

Recall Date: APR 17, 1998
Component: SUSPENSION:AUTOMATIC STABILITY CONTROL (ASC)
Potential Units Affected: 14855
Summary: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT OF THE YAW RATE SENSOR FOR THE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC), THE VSC CAN OPERATE IMPROPERLY IF THE SENSOR IS AFFECTED BY CERTAIN ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES, SUCH AS FROM A CELLULAR PHONE.
Consequence: SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE BRAKE MAY OPERATE UNEXPECTEDLY, AFFECTING STEERING AND SPEED CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE YAW RATE SENSOR.
