Tabbi 10 Posted February 26, 2016 Thankyou. I can see they have the LHD in stock but not for a RHD. I will try that email address. Many thanks, i really appreciate it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes saw they did - not sure why they are only showing LHD on their site but they seem to have access to stuff that is not on their site from Germany so hopefully they can help Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tabbi 10 Posted February 26, 2016 That is the one but it is out of stock and being sold by VW heritage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuggs1 10 Posted February 27, 2016 AH OK didn't notice that.... bit naughty being on eBay but not in stock.... any indication of when they will be back in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted February 27, 2016 They're probably special order, which usually takes 2-3 weeks to come from VW classic parts to them, from which they'll dispatch it to you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuggs1 10 Posted February 27, 2016 Good point same as my nut covers.... as I said early contact them and they will confirm.... my point still stands though if it's on eBay... they should really indicate that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted February 27, 2016 Why not fit a used one as suggested? I've never heard of anyone else having issues with them. Make sure your engine to battery earth cable is in good condition, I've seen broken earth straps cause the inner cable weld it self to the outer or cause fraying as it tries to pass starter current Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tabbi 10 Posted February 27, 2016 When i spoke to them they couldn't give me a date. All they said is they have been ordered. For what it is worth i may try a second hand one. Does anyone have a good one going spare? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted February 27, 2016 I've got a couple of throttle cables, both removed from late VR6's. If you want it you can have it for £13 posted (£10 plus the postage cost) Thanks Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
