5Q0713266AK Volkswagen cable for

This cable assembly basically connects your clutch pedal to the mechanism that actually disengages the engine from the transmission. It's a pretty straightforward system – when you push the pedal, the cable pulls on something called the throw – out fork, and that releases the clutch. It translates your foot pressure into mechanical action. It's a key part of your drivetrain, specifically the clutch system. Without it, you wouldn’t be able to smoothly shift gears or put the car in neutral. It’s the direct link between you and getting power from the engine to the wheels, and then stopping that power when you need to change gears. It’s important because if this cable stretches, frays, or breaks, you’ll have trouble getting into gear, or the clutch might not fully disengage, which can grind the gears and cause damage. You’ll notice if it's going bad – it might feel spongy under your foot, or you'll have difficulty getting the car into gear, or sometimes it won’t go out of gear. It acts like a shield protecting the rest of your transmission from wear and tear. A good cable ensures smooth, reliable shifting. We carry a lot of these at Fixparts Online, and they’re often something you can tackle yourself if you’re reasonably handy. It’s a relatively common repair. Your satisfaction is our priority: Cable Assembly (MPN 5Q0713266AK) is covered for 12 months!
