Throttle Return Spring

[jeboa]

Has anyone here purchased these before?

My next port of call will be a Land Rover dealer, but I thought there might be a 'specialist'.

The springs I need are the two identical ones, that sit either side of the mechanism (near to the windscreen end of the bonnet).

If anyone has found a suitable alternative, that would be fine too!

I'd be interested in the answer to this too... mine are creaking well so could do with being replaced

Arrowed above for clarity, from the Range Rover manual.

On a side note, does anyone have an 'exploded' parts drawing of the throttle mechanism?

Maybe the creaking suggests that some lubrication would be useful as I doubt they would creak as part of a failure mode. Not too sure what would be best as it will no doubt get hot round there but perhaps a silicon spray as that is OK for some decent temperature. What does everyone think?

Found the part number:

610846L

Available from BritParts or RimmerBros apparently. Around £1.50 each.

And I found the exploded diagram (if anyone needs it for further reference):
