Camry 03.is Anything Wrong With My Throttle Position Sensor Or Gear Selection by czarmide(m): 7:59pm On Nov 03, 2017
I observe just of recent that my car will move without pressing the gas pedal. Its not on cruise control. The gas pedal is responding normally when pressed ,but when my leg is off the gas pedal the vehicle will maintain slow acceleration.

I have scanned the vehicle no check engine.

Gazzuzz and others.your advice is needed

THIs is normal for automatics I believe. My idle is 700 - 800 rpm and the car moves itself and a straight smooth surface.

Just of recent your car began working just fine. Be worried when it doesn't move when foot is not on the gas pedal nor brake.

Bro.. From my little knowledge.. That's how all cars should be... Now.. You should be worried if your car dosent move at all when on idle... On a smooth surface..

op if I understand u clearly, the vehicle accelerates itself without the gas pedal being depressed, am I right? does it rev itself wen the vehicle is in Park? if this is the situation try disconnecting coolant temperature sensor harness and see if there is any difference.

note that this is different from the car just moving on its own wen in Drive...... that's how an automatic transmission is meant to behave. and I don't believe u will come here to get clarifications on that.

guys and auto gurus, before prescribing drugs and concluding on patients condition, listen attentively to gather facts first. I don't think op typed anything that indicates that his vehicle is just beginning to ACT like an AUTOMATIC.

On what gear do you notice this? P or R or N or D
Is there a noticeable change on the RPM counter or vehicle sound?
