Hi Perhaps someone here can help me on my problem with DFGT pedals. My problem only appears when racing GT5 on PS3. First of all with automatic transmission the car accelerates only upto third gear, even though pedal is pressed. And also many times when crashing into a fence or other offroad obstances, acceleration pedal stops working. However acceleration meter in the hud works when pedal is pressed, but the car simply doesn't move. Thanks for any in advance.

Sounds like the same problem I'm having which is actually the brakes sticking slightly on. This is caused by the pedal potentiometers being worn out.

Hi im having the exact same problem, did you find an answer?

The same happened with my G27 pedals. At first, I modified (shortened) the small return spring around the poteniometer and that worked for a bit. It happened again last month and this time I have swapped the brake pedal with the clutch pedal. So now everything is fine, but I know that eventually, it will happen again.

I think that next time around I will replace the potentiometer, assuming I can find the correct on online.

It is a tad annoying though. I mean, I love my G27, but I find that I am forever having to fix the blooming thing. I suppose I should be thankful that they are not sealed, and therefore unserviceable units...
