My bug's speedo squeaks in cold weather! It's a rythmical squeak that gets faster as the car goes faster, and I can see the needle wobbling slightly in time with the squeak. What is the best way to fix the squeak?

Probably the cable broken, not the speedo...

Nope!

I'll have a proper look at it over the weekend (if I can find the time)
