throttle body question
« on: 01 September 2009, 21:07 »
right i want to know is it possible to tighten the cable on a throttle body on a mk4 gti turbo AGU???

as when i had the accident the cable came off the throttle body and the garage simply put it back in.. but now when i am driving it it does feel loose and the the accelartion doesnt feel 100% .. also the accelerator pedel is sitting about half a inch more down then normal... is there anything i can do about this??

just want to know before i take it to a mechanic  :smiley:

Make sure the cable bracket on the inlet mani has not been taken of and put the wrong way round.
