    My f430 has done 43k on it (km not miles) I noticed the throttle pedal started making some squeeky noises
    I sprayed silicon spray on the potentiometer or encoder (plastic piece) and the noise settled

    However there was a lot of dirt on the throttle spring

    So i removed the throttle pedal, it was quite easy, just remove the carpet piece around it (2 screws from memory) and then undo the small bolt and slide out the pin for the pedal
    Then remove the pedal and spring
    Cleaned it all up and greased the needle bearing inside
    Put it all back together and the throttle moves so smooth now! Actually made a big difference
