I would first look into *why* the upper slider wouldn't
work, otherwise you'll break the replacement as well.  (And
they are NOT cheap IIRC)  The temp control slider problem
is almost surely the cable - I just replaced the one in my
16v a couple weeks ago.

Try a bolt & lock washer through the pivot to see if that
will fix it.  If not, I probably have one from the most
recent cancer victim.
