clutch cables

[posscakes]

well i'm guessing it was a clutch cable that went pop, hence i got no clutch action now and the passat is stranded between here and school. i'm going back for a closer look its one of the things i hate about vw's is the lack of room underneath you either need ramps,a handy gutter, or in this case a jack other than that i love them... more later.

Hi Posscakes,

I have some spare clutch cables to suit a MK1 diesel golf, not sure if they are the same or not. Also, the firewall on the golfs fatigues and the clutch cable pulls through the firewall, not sure if this happens on the Passat but its worth checking.

clutch cable 2 pieces but hiho thankfully not the firewall as well. take back previous comments bout underneath access as i discovered i don't need it. i don't think a golf one will fit just had quick look at my girlfriends golf mk 1 looks a bit different due to the way the engine sits. But can anyone clarify wether a clutch cable off a petrol engined passat will fit a 1.5D? bentley seems to say so... cheers chris.
