Speedo

[86WANNABE]

Hey people

Has anyone on here had the problem with the speedo where it bounces untill it reaches about 70km and steadies itself. By bouncing I mean it bounces in 10km ranges untill it hits 70km and becomes accurate so to speak ( it also ticks quietly untill it levels too ).

Any help would be great ( havent had a proper look myself yet either )

I have that problem, but no where near as bad, just jumps a little when driving slowly in lower gears, but doesnt BOUNCE around........

Try checking inside the speedo cable, sometimes it can build up gunk and sh*t and the cable gets caught on these..... http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

it bounces coz your cable is streched and/or old, the one in my rx4 used to fo the same thing. pluss i wound it off the clock a few times tihs i have founf also does not help, the only things you can do is clean up the back so it spins a bit freer or replace the cable. hope this helps a bit
