speedometer cable noise
I have a noisey speedometer cable,( Im pretty sure thats what it is) mostly in cold weather, so i hope it goes away when warmer comes, soon. Is there a easy way to lube up the cable? Or is replacement the only way. Thanks

probably just your transmission about to crap out. Nothing to worry about.

The speedometer has no cable - at least no cable that spins internally. The signal is from the unified meter and A/C amp.
