2_Door_fun 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Hi all. Great place this by the way. I'm a member of http://www.saabcentral.com this place is just as good. Wrote many writeups for saabs so if anybody wants one doing give me a shout. Here's one of mine on gearbox rempval if you want to take a look. http://www.saabcentral.com/~munki/technical/transmission/changing_the_transmission.htm Anyway. My G60 has had the release lever moved under the drivers wing!!! My cable has snapped!!! So rather than by a new cable n cut it short I thought I would replace it and put it back to stock. So what do i need parts n No's if anyone has em. At the Mo I am using a long long screwdriver and a torch to pop the hood. Cheers all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 25, 2006 Welcome to the forum! The cable itself is 536 823 531 and is about £30 from VAG, if thats all thats broken then in theory that is all you will need to fix it altho it maybe worth ordering the various grommets, guidesleeves and locking levers and do the lot (VW can look these up for you when you order) Fantastic guide there, very well written! We are currently trying to build up a knowledge base with exactly that sort of material (see link above) so feel free to document anything thats not there already, the bonnet cable replacement would be a good one infact!

2_Door_fun 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Hi Supercharged. Oh OK. I don't mind writing stuff. Its just some forums are a bit tight n don't like someone popping up with ideas. I'll do the cable writeup no prob. My lever does not appear to be like that found say on a golf in the scrappers. Its more like an old bonett lock clamp lever. You know the sought found on Mini's ala Micheal Caine. So do you have any ideas on what fits in the foot well. I guess it fits on the drivers side. There is nothing there at the mo.!!! Will a lever setup from a Mk2 Golf fit? I know the C has the two striker pins so its def its own cable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This might help but I don't have a pic inside the car... (the handle is corrado-specific) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
