Throttle body reset

I decided to try a throttle body reset to see if it would help with any of the problems. To my surprise it fixed about 90% of the problem! I can still feel some minor hesitations but for the most part it is gone!

Here are the steps if you'd like to try it for yourself:
****Stay away from your break pedal!****
1. Insert fob into slot (if you have a key, turn it 2 clicks to the right)
2. Press Start/Stop Engine button (no break)
3. Depress gas pedal all the way down for ~30s (if you listen, you will hear adjustments)
4. Press Start/Stop Engine button (no break)
5. Release gas pedal.
6. Wait about 2 min
7. Start car

The reset also made the throttle response MUCH better (kinda like when i first got the AA tune). Hope this solves others problems as well
