Thanks in advance for helping me
I have done that twice myself and never had problem - once trough Vida, once trough battery reset. In both cases it worked no problem. No idea why it didnt work in your case - maybe you are just unlucky but dont get discouraged with Vida yet.
1) do you have any errors currently showing in Vida? I would expect some faults shown if car stutters
2) You can reset all "learned" settings by disconnecting battery for 10mins and copnnecting it back again. It should erase all adaptive settings, including throttle body, and will allow car to learn it again. The rule of thumb is - start the car and let it idle for 10mins. It will carry out auto adaptation on throttle and should revert to normal operation. If it doesnt - you have some other issue probably not related to actual throttle resetting.

edit - just a thought - reading your post makes me think you did the "reset" on car, then fired it up and iommediately tried to drive etc? if thats the case - its WRONG, you must allow it to idle without touching accelerator for quite some time (10 mins or so) and just after that it will be OK.

**all above is confirmed to work on T5 volvo engine, not 100% sure the same applies to D2 but I would imagine so**
