Subject:      Clicking speedometer fixed

Thanks to all of the list members who responded to my post about a clicking speedometer a few weeks ago. My local VW dealer wanted over $300 parts (cable, speedometer head) and labor to stop the annoying and fairly loud clicking. After trying a common suggestion from the list members who responded to my post, yesterday I unhooked the cable from the speedometer head and applied some cable lubricant ($2.49 at Pep Boys). The clicking disappeared and it was very nice driving into work today without the annoying "click-click-click" sound in the background.

Thanks for the quite ride,

Steve
