Hi, this has been annoying me for somethime now and was wonderinf what it was and if it was an easy fix? If so i might as well do it. It's a clicking that goes faster with speed?
thanks, |

What's going to snap? The speedo cable? It's more of a ticking at the moment. And yes the speedo does wobble at low speeds. So does this mean the cable is worn and will need replacing? Is it a tough job?
I have also found louder tunes effectively hide the noise lol  |

mine has this as well.. needle wobble at all speeds and an occasional ticking/clicking.. so what will/may snap? the speedo or the cable? somebody told me at one point that the wobble is caused by a faulty cable, but i find that hard to believe (would think it was speedo itself).. |
