Snapped Throttle Cable - Arghh

Post by roj62 »

So we finally had everything working for the holidays. headed off and about 45mins later just past Lochearnhead the accelerator pedal dropped to the floor. fortunately we were heading downhill so could coast into a safe spot. Waited about an hour and a half for the AA which turned out to be a local garage 2 miles away.

Sat in the garage for 2 hours while their mechanics tried to repair the throttle cable but it was paggered - broke in three places! They didn't have a part so we had to come back to Edinburgh on the recovery truck.

So does anyone know where I can get a throttle cable for a 2.1 automatic LHD?

Cheers
