I searched but could not find an answer. So, when I'm going though a sweeping turn, like a on or off ramp from the freeway, my gas pedal doesn't want to pop up when I let off of it. And it happens more when going right. It doesn't stick when the car is stationary or at low speed.
I'm thinking the throttle cable is binding up when the car leans into a turns. Hanging up on the strut tower. The cable looks good, but wonder if I need more slack in it???
Just seeing if this ever happened to anyone and if anyone could shed some light. Thanks guys!!
Easy fix - Make sure your floor mat isn't shifting around.
Hard fix - I wonder what condition your motor mounts are in and if on those sweeping right turns the throttle is binding against the auxiliary turbo water pump or bracket. They are pretty close to each other.

No floor mat at the moment. The motor mounts were just replaced. I'll check to see the clearance today. 👍🏼👍🏼 when in a turn, the pedal is had to press as well as sticking. Feels "grainy", if that makes sense. All the other time it is nice and smooth.

Had the exact symptoms. Also had new OEM motor mounts. Throttle was binding against the auxiliary turbo water pump during right corners.

I just slightly moved the pump so there is some more clearance.
