Ok, you have another pedal cluster problem that I didn't mention in the
first e-mail- I just noticed that you have a rabbit.  The problem there is
the tube that the clutch cable pushes against.  it is welded to the pedal
cluster and snaps off.  I had this happen on my A1, and pulling the pedal
cluster on it was no big deal.  I took it to a shop and had it welded, and
never had a problem with it again.


Also- the pedal cluster is only really hard if you try to do it with the
dash beam in the car.  It's absolutely impossible to move around or see
anything with that beast in there, and it's only 4 bolts to get it out.
Since your wabbit doesn't have a dash beam, it makes it that much easier.
