Since I've had my '87 Syncro the speedometer has had an annoying rattling sound. I took it to these guys: www.speedometerservice.net And it's now perfectly quiet. They said the factory grease gets hard. They also did the "odometer fix" while they were in there, though it had already been done. Cost me $100 (fixed price I think) and picked it up the same day.
