Gas Pedal non responsive	Sign In

Hi i have a Nissan Sunny 2008 Automatic, done 32000 kms only, 2000 kms the last 2 years, sometimes when i start the car the gas pedal is non responsive, sometimes the car starts fine and the gas pedal becomes non responsive on the go.
when i start the car sometimes i get just under 1000 rpm and the gas pedal is non responsive and sometimes i get near 1500 rpm when i start and the car works fine.
i m clueless ? what could be the problem.

"sometimes!" Hmmm - this about can't be cable operated throttle and if so not sure how that could happen. A broken cable and have seen that stays broken. This exact model not sold in the states so would have little chance to research it well for you.

I'd plain have someone push pedal without engine running and watch for what moves underhood then again with key to run but not running even looking at throttle plate. See what others suggest because this is a first for me personally,

I doubt this is anything you can fix yourself. I don't have specific info on this car because it's not sold in the US but as most 2008 vehicles, it is probably a "drive by wire" electronic throttle system that requires sophisticated test equipment.
