When I changed my a6 to Tour from ECO it was much more pleasant to drive.

I had a Pedal Commander throttle controller on my 2010 Camaro and it was incredible. It eliminates the lag you get with electronic throttles. It doesn’t add any power but the car feels quicker because the throttle response is quicker.

I bought a 2015 C7 Stingray last month and will be adding the Pedal Commander in the Spring. Don’t know anything about the Soler controller but I imagine it works on the same principle.

Happened to me yesterday. I was crossing traffic. Had time to clear the intersection but not by much. I pressed the accelerator to cross but the car acted as if the transmission was slipping or that it was in the wrong gear (high gear) to move the car. I immediately shifted into manual mode but still no go. The fortunate thing was that i had given myself time to clear the intersection because if I hadn't i would have been t-boned. The car has never done this before and now I'm extremely leery about crossing traffic. I'm scheduled for an oil change next week so I'll address the issue with the dealer then. My car is a 2015, Z51 with A8.

The Soler Throttle body also helps getting ride of that hesitation at low throttle.

My 2016 had it. A software upgrade at the dealer fixed it. My 2019 also had it when first starting. The triple flush at the dealer fixed that. Not a big deal if it's either one of these issues. Just make an appointment at a dealership that has experience working on newer Vettes as the issue is quite common.

Exactly, the very same principle, there is not much more to it regardless of how they are advertised, priced, or packaged. We offer more settings and a better aesthetic match to the Corvette interior. It seems like you have made your mind up, but shall you decide to give us a try and safe a couple of hundred, you are welcome to do so. We'll take it back if you do not think it performs the same or better.

Thanks,

Just picked up a 2018 m7 GS with 1400 miles on it. It doesn’t happen every time off the line but enough to be extremely annoying. Glad to hear it’s not my stick skills although this seems like something Chevy should be addressing?
