from passenger side of engine bay, look under the intercooler (the rad on top of engine)

you'll see the accelerator & kickdown cable
kickdown has a red rubber sleeve  Wink

if it isn't adjusted right, your gear changes will be eratic or possibly none existent when you boot it

move the rubber cover towards the front of the engine, and extend the cable so you can see a metal 'stop' on the cable

the gap between the stop and retainer should be 34 - 35mm

yes, it basically drops it a gear, to give higher revs when needed

kickdown should engage approx 2100rpm in normal driving and 4200rpm when you floor it
