Scirocco
I know this is amazing, but true: I have a Mk2 Scirocco which was born
with an automatic transmission. It has been having a problem with
upshifting which seems to have to do with the throttle valve cable (the
cable that goes from the transmission to the throttle body): for
whatever reason it stretched to the point I cannot adjust it any longer.
I went to the stealer and they want $170 for it. Ouch! So, I was
wondering if any of you may have one of those cables laying around, say
because of converting a car from AT to MT. If you do, please think on
me. =)
It may be a silly question, but have you tried to adjust all the slack out of it?
