Throttle Lag On DBW

[Yaris Hilton]

I don't think my daughter's '01 with AT did. (At least in "Drive.") But you'll be able to feel it if it does. It's really pretty subtle, not a great lurch. You have to pay attention to it.

Mine definately does it and it took awhile to realize what was going on, its most noticeable with cruise on coasting down a slight decline around 60 kph, it will accelerate (going down hill) just a bit to a speed which is above the set speed (60) then go off throttle, that causes DFCO to kick in, it decellerates to a speed just below the set speed and wants to speed up so DFCO is cancelled, fuel flows again and car speeds up to set speed at which point with the engine running it goes a bit over the set speed and DFCO cuts off fuel. The process continues until either the hill gets steep enough that it can stay in DFCO at or above the set speed or I get in the flats and the engine runs as normal.

Pretty subtle but you can "feel" it cut in and out.
