HIKE IT-X5 Premium Pedal Controller for Volkswagen Lavida 2012-2017 (2Nd Gen)
SKU code: HI-1102B-Lavida
The Hike IT X5 is a High-End throttle response controller that removes response time delays on any vehicle with an electronic fuel pedal (most vehicles made after 2005).
Sick of the delay you get when pushing your accelerator pedal?
HIKEit has a solution to get rid of that pedal lag!
The HIKEit X5 Throttle Controller is the most advanced controller on the market and is designed specifically To "wake up" your car by reducing throttle lag and improving the response time from your vehicle's "fly by wire" accelerator. Best of all| the X5 is Plug & Play!
What is the HIKEit X5?
The HIKEit X5 is a 'bite-size' throttle response controller that removes delays in your electronic accelerator pedal. In short| the X5 will get a faster response from your engine and therefore you'll get a modified acceleration depending on the X9 setting you select.
When you push your car's pedal it shouldn't feel like your stomping a sponge; you should get the immediate response from your engine which is why we developed the HIKEit X5.
In addition to Automatic Mode Selection which will intelligently learn your driving style and the current situation and adapt the mode to suit| the X5 has 4 different control modes: Eco/4x4| Sport/Tow| and the Highest Performance mode| HIKEit mode. Each of the 4 modes has 9 different adjustable levels available for selection.
The HIKEit X5 Difference
HOW IT WORKS
The X5 has a clever PCB module that updates the points of reference for a vehicle's throttle mapping. Throttle Lag is added by manufacturers for several reasons including fuel economy. The HIKEit X5 maintains the standard parameters of your vehicle; however| introduces a sharper throttle curve (or smoother when in 4x4 Eco mode) and reduces the “dead zone” in your car's accelerator pedal.
HIKEit’s Performance mode (with 9 level settings) is not for the ‘Sunday driver’. HIKEit setting 1 is classified as intense while setting 7-9 is like ‘launch mode’. In any mode| touching the mode button will activate ‘Over-Take mode’ that will instantly put the X5 into HIKEit Mode setting 9.
HIKE IT's Sport/Tow mode (with 10 level settings) is a fun way to get around without the adrenalin boost of HIKE IT mode. It's perfect when towing anything and will adjust perfectly to the application at hand.
Economy Mode (E) Economy mode has 10 settings that reduce the response from the pedal which will improve fuel economy and with a dampened response it can be particularly handy in situations such as driving off-road| towing| beach driving| etc.
UNIQUE FEATURES
Clever Modes
The X5 has 3 clever pre-set modes to give you complete pedal control...

Auto-Brightness Sensor
The X5 has a clever Ambient Light Sensor that automatically adjusts the LCD brightness depending on the current light situation.
OPTIMISATION ISN'T JUST PLAIN OLD OPTIMISATION
How the HIKEit X5 Stacks up against the CompetitionThe most widely used doesn't always mean the best. This is true in the instance of throttle controllers. When selecting a throttle controller performance and reliability must be put ahead of the brand name.
Improve Power without additional stress on your Vehicle| just better response!
The HIKEIT X5 works just like the 'Sport' button found in many cars by cutting down the amount of pedal travel required to achieve 'Throttle Wide Open' which will allow you to access the engine's full potential. The HIKEIT X5 is pre-programmed with 4 adjustable mode maps which are finely tuned for your vehicle. Each function will alter the throttle signal in a different way which can be set depending on your preference.
Transmission Specific Settings
When gears changed in both Auto and Manual Transmissions| there is always a slight delay in throttle response| affecting take-off speed and general safety. The HIKE IT X9 sits between the pedal and your car's ECU to intercept the signal and process it to quicken the response time. The X9 has an individual setting based on your car's transmission to tune the signal further while maintaining the original feel of an Auto or Manual Transmission.
Auto-Brightness Adjustment
Built into the face of the HIKEIT X5 is a clever Ambient Light Sensor which will adjust the brightness of the blue display light so you can see the settings perfectly in daylight and you won't be blinded at night time.
Undetectable by your Car Dealership!
We understand the last thing you want to do is void your new car warranty. With the HIKEIT you don't need to wait for your warranty to finish before you can start customizing it and improving its driving performance.
Once removed| the HIKEIT won't leave a trace when removed while some other aftermarket tuners or programmers will add "red flags" on the ECU after installed. Rest assured that the HIKEIT is 100% UNTRACEABLE by dealerships. Before visiting your dealer for a service just unplug the HIKEIT and hide it out of sight. For repair work| we recommend removing it just to be safe.
