I took mine in for service a couple of months ago and told service people about the problem and others on the forum talking the same issue. Surprise, surprise they bent over backwards to resolve the problem for me. They updated and reprogramed the ecu and I have not had problem since.

My 2012 GU8 did the same thing, totally random, hot or cold, with or without any accelerator applied at startup.
Nissan found a fault with the TPS and replaced it all.
The problem has since returned, although the amount of dead peddle is significantly less, about 10-15mm, originally it was about 20-30mm. Now I test the throttle before I head off and if it's bugged I just do a restart and it clears. I'll mention it to Nissan again when it's next serviced.
This seems to be an increasingly common problem with the later models.

well Nissan found no fault codes with mine. but it happened again the other day so i took it straight to Nissan while it had the problem
and they are now going to replace the peddle. they said that it has a voltage drop at full throttle it was reading 3.8 volts not 4 volts
and when he was pushing the throttle down the volts would jump all over the place hopefully when the replace the peddle on Wednesday
there are no more problems
Thanks for the coments.
My GU6 has a similar but differnt throtle problem. In top gear it wont accelerate past 105 Ks. Then it give the impression that it is speed limited. My diesel man reset the codes that poped up and I still did the same thing but at about 90ks. Is this a fault with the speed sensor? codes related to fuel pump I think.
