Audi 80 Pedal AGAIN!

geneandbolly · 14-12-11, 10:40 AM

sorry to harp on about this problem again!

i am aware that the petrol and diesel
versions of the audi 80 have different pedals but all i need
is the flat black plastic pedal plate that you
push your foot against to accelerate. my car
just has the club shaped stump left with a
spring sticking out of it and no plate.

from the look of this one for sale on ebay i reckon
that the plastic plate might just fit on the stump
on my pedal. the seller tells me it's from a PETROL
car but all i need is the pedal plate itself.
can anyone tell me for sure if
it will fit or not cos i am completely STUMPED here!!

many thanks

The footplate bit is attached the the arm with a plastic tab at the top, which it hinges on and this is the bit that snaps! I have tired in the past to glue the footplate back on but because it was designed to be hinged it always snaps off again

. You have to buy the whole arm I'm afraid or just cut the spring off with snips and live with it as it is.
