A cable guide which has a simple structure and can be easily assembled is adapted to change the direction of the inner cable which slide and drive the slide door of a vehicle, and includes a pulley casewhose upper surface is opened, a pulleyhoused in the pulley case and pivoted rotatably, and a case coverto cover the upper surface of the pulley case. The pulley case has a fixing portionof the outer casing which slidably houses an inner cable. The fixing portion has grooves of roughly U-shaped cross section. The inner perimeter of the groove has a case protrusion. A cover protrusionis formed in the case cover so as to face the case protrusion.

A powered sliding-door system of an automobile with a sliding-door drive device A and an automatic door closer B. The sliding-door drive device A has a box-like case body 1 opening downward, a case cover 2 covering the opening of the case body 1. A pair of guide pulleys are rotatably supported by axes, and each axis stands on the front end and the rear end of the case in slanting posture. A loop of cable is arranged between the pair of guide pulleys so that a working side is arranged outside of the case body and a return side is arranged in the case body. The loop of cable is driven by an motor driven actuator 12.
