Accelerator cable replacement
You will get the exact price of the service after sending the form
The accelerator cable transmits the movement of the accelerator pedal to the throttle lever in a petrol engine car or the injection pump actuator control arm in a diesel engine car. The steel, braided cable is placed inside a plastic sleeve and equipped with ends suitable for a given car model. The cable requires replacing when it breaks, doesn't work smoothly, gets stuck or is too loose.
Tips
- The gas cable must be replaced immediately after it is found defective. Otherwise it may disable your car altogether
- With time, the cable may extend by even a few centimetres
- If this is the case, you will notice a decrease in the maximum speed and problems with exceeding a certain RPM threshold
Range of services
- Disconnecting the cable ends from the accelerator pedal and the engine chamber component it controls
- Removing the cable together with the sleeve
- Fitting a new cable in
- Adjusting the working length of the cable
