    Just take the cable apart and give it a good WD-40 down the outer cable protector then put the speedo cable back in side

    Get a new cable,the ones on this model are frankly shite.! -practically hand pressure fit together with a light tap to keep it together - they fall apart quite easily,mine did on my '06'.;).

    When i took mine out of the speedo drive,the metal end cap (fastened on by x2 'dimples') came off & the inner cable was broken off about 2"'s back.
