Got no picture to help but what is the black round disc for on the floor under the accelerator pedal. 2.5 diesel if that helps.
Thanks
Joe

Nothing Hi tech .. it's simply a throttle pedal stop ..

It also serves to hold the carpet down behind the pedal.

Some one claimed on FB that it locked there bonnet catch, and claimed it was in the manual as well, but nobody else has seen this at all!

To be honest .... I initially thought it was a lecky switch for the kick down ..!!
