Accelerator peddle with a bolt in it

[terrybullwon]

My accelerator peddle has a bolt straight through the middle of it and it sits proud of the peddle face
Just wondering if any one else has encountered such bolt?
Its hardly OEM and is really starting to cheese me off

Does not sound OEM to me! A new pedal is £20 odd from Vagparts. A fitting guide is on here somehwhere...

Cheers,

Steve.

Commom thing, the pedal "pad" itself snaps off from the arm. As the pedal "pad" can't be replaced on it's own, people use various methods to reattach it to the arm.
Only way to get rid of it, is to buy a complete new pedal pad and arm.
They aren't that expensive and are easy enough to fit, if you don't mind lying on your back in the footwell, with your legs in the air.

Vagparts sell them at £33 +vat (current price on their site), dealers quoted me £55 a couple of years ago, Maybe Ben (s2avant) would be able to help?
Saw one last week on fleabay by seller urquattrob.

well done jas

Really would like to get my hands on the guy that put the bolt in there

really? that cheap from vagparts? wow.. last time i checked i got quoted £150 from stealers, so I attached a chav pedal instead to save on some cash.

I think I will be giving VAG parts a call and restoring my pedals to OEM.

Don't bid on the one on Flea bay, as i am the current highest bidder

They are £42.90 + VAT for stealers. Part number 8A2 721 507 C

I need a new one for my TDi. They are a whopping £84.71 + VAT as it is drive by wire and it has the potentiometer bracket on it.
