Well that saves a £40 punt then on a used one.

"you need to get a new plug shell for the throttle pedal and renew the terminals too , they have lost their springy grip on the pins"

You mean as in a new part? Whats that called in their lingo?

"also the other end of the signal wire to the CEM put a new terminal repair wire on that too"

OK thats the next project then thanks.

Any thoughts on the software update idea?
every dealer will have done these over the last 14 years, the plastic shell is called a "Housing" and you want the 6 terminal repair wires which fit it.

HOUSING 8690598
TERMINAL REPAIR 30765498 X 6

I usually run a new white wire between the throttle pedal terminal Pin 2 and and Pin 31 of Green connector G under the CEM on the left side as it goes up behind the dash and could be trapped up there somewhere ..

software won't have any effect of a fundamental main control of the car ..
