Been hearing a speed related howl coming from the front end for about a year now. Was fearing it was a wheel bearing. Finally pulled the speedo cable and noise is gone.
Crap! I have the dreaded speedo howl. Any chance I can save this?

Depends on wether it`s nocturnal or not.
If it's only of a night time it`s easily saved, but you`ll need a sharp wooden stake!
If it`s day time, just shift it up a gear!
A little light oil will alleviate her squealing, but if it`s day and night .....can only suggest ear muffs, or something digital for relief, superman!! :sorry:

FJ_Hooligan,
After a year, I don't know. It could be too late to fix things now, though. This trick worked for me. Hope it helps you.
