Left Foot Braking

lol I was shocked when I first did it... nearly went through the windscreen hahaha.

the ecu doesnt cut power if you apply the brakes with the throttle at the same time.

2 ways to try this out, sit at standstill with your foot on the brake and act like a twunt revving your engine. or, drive at say 30 or whatever, apply brakes gently whilst keeping your foot on the engine - its just increases the load on the engine

I thought the very early ones had a throttle cable, like the MK4 Golf's.

Who knows!

I thought that too, My TT was an 03 plate and my A3 was a 54 plate, both with DBW throttle.

You shouldn't be waiting till the car's understeering till you left foot brake, you need the front wheels to have grip for it to work, obviously..

Im also guessing your using it to get the car going sideways rather than trying to get round quickly? Sideways looks best but isnt quickest!

My Mini doesn't cut the throttle when i touch the brake!!??
