    A little tip when fitting new cables my old dad taught me. He was a REME engineer and knew everything about vehicles. Hang the new cables up and make a small 'funnel' out of blu tac or plasticene at the higher end of the cable. Fill this with a light oil, I use a PTFE spray. Put a plastic dish or something under the lower end of the cable. When oil drips out of the cables they are done! This makes them last a lot longer AND adjust easier. Otherwise as they age they rust inside the plastic covers and seize. Great video thanks.

    Very well demonstrated, I think I'd have to jack mine up, it's been lowered. Thanks

      Yes unless you are super thin, if it’s been lowered you won’t get under it. You can do it 👍

      I have a SWB FWD Transporter, 2005 1.9tdi.The problem is that my local parts supplier is asking 60€ while online the prices vary between 5-20. I will try to measure mine! Thanks for the answer, I will keep you posted!

      Try this to give you part numbers. All Vw t5 t6 use the same rear cables. You can do it 👍

    My mechanic just fitted mine and said he had to lower part of the fuel tank!

      Doesn’t sound right. What exact VW do you have ? As you can see from the video it’s not necessary for the rear parts that are ones that normally go. You can do it 👍
