Could anybody post me some pics of how the throttle cable is routed through the engine bay on a BX GTI?
Cheers Ian.

Try some of the Japanese BX sites - they sem to have photographed many maintenance tasks on BXs - and a good deal more besides.

I don't think there's anything too complicated about it.
My 16V just drapes across the top of the engine, but here's that Jap BX site if it's any help.

Key bit for a good run is to route it under the engine mount "bridge" then you must do 180 degrees to get to the bracket, smooth curves are good but on mu TZD the 180 turn is quite sharp.
