That's the most clever trick ive seen in a long while. What I'm going to do different on mine is run the zip tie up the bottom of the handle then back through and terminate it exactly as you did on the bottom. That way the zip tie clasp won't be visible inside the handle. You, sir, are a genuine MacGyver. That's the best compliment I can give!

I pulled the carpet and cut an opening on the back to release the plastic tab under the bracket so you can pull the latch without breaking it. Either weld the metal piece together or get a flat metal piece and rivet it together then glue the carpet back on.

Great video. It worked on my Polo and took about 15 minutes. I drilled into the top catch without removing it so didn’t know exactly where the old broken linkage ran. I did have a bit of a problem with the old linkage interfering with the cable tie to start with and I had to go in and cut part of it away at the bottom. Then it worked just fine. Makes you wonder why VW have such a crappy design in so many of their models - would it have cost a lot to have a wire link instead of a plastic one?

You're kiddig, aren't you ? In fact you have to REMOVE the aluminium cover FIRST and than there are special blocking tools for the vario and clutch. Everyting else is RUBBISH !!! Blocking your clutch via the rear wheel - what a stupid idea ! Also you destroyed the sealing as far as I can see - oh dear ! By the way ... your belt has to be replaces it it measures 26 mm or less and not only if it look well or not. There are just two advices from my side: 1.) For future repairs visit your local dealer. 2.) Please do NOT publish a second part of your "fantastic" self-repaire video. Thank you very much ! Best Regards.

Excellent Nige!! I couldn't get the top pull cap out as you showed us, but seeing where you put the slot a little off-center allowed me to drill in the slot without removing it. From below I was able to force the old broken stem to the side to let the zip-tie utilize the latch hole, and done. Cost me 2 zip-ties and 2 little drill bits because I wasn't patient enough. Two "cactus nuts" to you from Arizona!

Thank you - really useful video. With the tail pointing upwards, I fed a long tie up through the hole in the clip, and then through a small hole I made in the top lever assembly. This was held in position with the head of a tie wrap.
@kenwoolfe85155 жыл бұрын
So you basically reversed the process threading the tie-wrap from the bottom up.? Was this easier than top down? The important thing is to get the tie-wrap through the clip hole at the bottom right next to the latch assembly. It is a little hard to find that little hole when poking the tie-wrap down from the top. The video was a little hard to see that clip hose. His attempt seemed to slide right in. In the end, this worked great and was fast and cheap, worked well and is probably more durable than the original clip (tie-wraps are tough).
