Default Jumping Spedo
Like the title says my spedo is bouncing up and down. it seems pretty acurate but it still bouncing 10 km off in each direction. Is this a comman problem or does anyone know how to fix it. Thanks in advance

yeah youll see the spedo cable running to the transmission and it is held on with a clip with one bolt in it. Take the bolt out, slide the clip off and pull the cable out. Should take you 5 mins
