T25 Accelerator auto cable Mod

Post by bert »

Hi

Seems these cables are rare?

So does this mean Automatic T25's are RARE?

So is there a Mod a to make other cables fit, to do the job or is it the end of the Vans Life?
Cheers

Auto's van are not rare. got me a new one last month. go to your nearest vw van centre, took 2 days to get but came and was only £18 + vat so not expensive either. never the end of a vans life even if canot get genuine anymore, we can rebuild and adapt anything to work. thats the spirit :ok

By any chance the one you got was not a LHD one?

I ran SMV Commercials in Yeovil which is the VW Van centre in Yeovil, they can only get the LHD at £18 + vat.

They told me the RHD one was £15+vat and obsolete for about a year and no stock and unavailable.

So if it was a LHD cable? did it fit ok?
