Honestly, HDis you can drive up the road and just randomly bash the pedal as fast as you like and it makes NO difference to what the car does... I've never driven a car with a map that fixes this yet - they're like the original granny spec stock map, just they're making 150hp rather than 90hp...
My V50 is really bad for it and the Siemens 8vs are the same, seemingly they have the throttle dashpot/hysteresis controlled by vehicle speed - which results in you tapping the throttle to raise the RPMs, you notice the engine responds in a certain way, so you pull away, then the throttle pedal response totally changes and almost stalls! Drives you nuts to begin with!
But as you say you just get used to poking the throttle 10 minutes earlier! To heel/toe the V50 you have to just depress your foot on the accelerator for 5 seconds which will then get it to about the right RPM... It's definitely not a case of a little "bwap" on the accelerator, lol! I'm sure it's amazing to stop people wrecking DMFs but it fucks me off royally that whenever you get in a modern fly-by-wire car, it can't respond to inputs properly!
