It does feel like the TPS doesnt know whats going on, cause you are accelerating or decelerating. No cruise, unless i hold it back in 3rd where it revs a bit more. Then I can cruise because my foot is farther onto the accelerator and the TPS realises.
At low engine rpm & low throttle load it just hesitates real bad, doesnt know whether you want it to go or not.

And it still likes to step out in the dry...

Is it a manual? I thought I read it was????

With a manual, in gear if the foot is on the gas it goes, take it off and it starts to engine brake. It won't "float" unless you clutch it.
Or do you mean it will not keep a constant speed with a constant throttle input?

The "thump" does it happen in the dry too?
Can you get it to thump when you brake hard?
What about on hard throttle, does it thump then?
Does it sound like it's coming from the floor, boot or rear seat?
