Title: Another bloody clutch cable!
Post by: AdzCM on March 05, 2015, 11:48:52 pm
This is getting annoying. Gone through about 5 clutch cables since owning my polo. This last one lasted about 1500 miles with a paddle clutch.

Can anyone remember where to get hold of the guy on club polo who got wee metal ends made up to replace the plastic ends?

They were about £20 but I'd pay double that just to prevent my clutch cable from snapping ever again! Happened at a really busy junction. Had to stop, but couldn't get going again until someone helped push me while I started in 2nd gear.... Pain in the ass! >:(

I got mine for £10 from someone off Facebook. Can be easily made.

Was he just selling one or did he have more?

Is it a good job?
