How does the iDRIVE work?
The iDRIVE throttle controller modifies the voltage signal from the fly-by-wire pedal
assembly to allow you to tune the response from your accelerator pedal and greatly
reduce throttle lag. The iDRIVE plugs directly into your pedal command module and
can generally be installed in as little as 5 minutes.
Does the iDRIVE increase horsepower?
No, iDRIVE throttle controllers will not increase power output. They have no control
over fuel mapping, air to fuel ratio or injection timing. The iDRIVE simply changes
the way your throttle responds, eliminating any lags or delays in the throttle system
and sharpening response. It essentially gets rid of the feeling that there’s a big wet
sponge sitting underneath the accelerator pedal of most modern cars with the fly-by-
wire system.
Is iDRIVE suitable for towing?
iDRIVE throttle controllers are very useful for towing as they help get your vehicle up
to speed from a standing start while using less effort, placing less strain on your
motor and using less fuel. Especially handy around town where there is a lot of
stopping and starting.
What transmission does the iDRIVE work with?
iDRIVE throttle controllers are suited to both manual and automatic transmissions.
Is the iDRIVE hard to install?
On the vast majority of vehicles the iDRIVE can be installed in under 2 minutes with
no tools or technical knowledge required. Every unit comes with a clear set of
instructions which take you through a step-by-step installation. The iDRIVE was
always designed with plug and play application in mind, so anyone, anywhere can
reap the benefits of an iDRIVE in their vehicle.
Is the IDRIVE universal or vehicle specific?
Although every iDRIVE shares the same main hardware and applications, each
iDRIVE is specifically programmed to each vehicle, meaning they are not
transferable across makes and models. Please check our application guidelines for
the makes/models we can supply an iDRIVE for.
