Yeah, mine has done that too, I think there used to be another plastic washer/spacer at the pedal end that has broken and fallen off, causing too much slack, Toyota doesnt seem to have anything listed but the entire assembly, and their diagrams aren't worth s**t. dont remember the price, but I remember it wasnt exactly cheap. I am eventually going to work on making a spacer for the pedal end, shouldn't need any more than a couple of thick washers, maybe brass or aluminum, saw a slot in them, slide over cable at the pedal end, and crimp the slot shut...something along those lines anyway...
