Or, at least that over time the problem would have stopped after the car adapted to my style of driving. I now have over 7,000 miles on the car, so it has had plenty of driving time to adapt. In any case, my car is better now and I am crossing my fingers. I will give my dealership credit, they did say that if this did not fix the problem, they would schedule an appointment with the regional service rep. As you all know, this is really diminishing the driving experience of the car. What a shame. Especially since the car does so well above 10 mph.

Thanks for the feedback DChaffins...
Yes, I also read today that it did wear off after a while for some (few weeks or so). One guy says he does it every month or so. If that's the case, then I'm not sure this is a real solution to the problem.
Also, one guy says his dealer is not aware of such a throttle reset. He says the only update or reset the dealer knows is through the ECU - which adds to the mystery of this fix.
