Entropy98 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 So I changed my lower ball joint on the driver side this weekend. After I did it I noticed that the speedometer needle jumps up and down about 2-3 mph while holding a constant speed. If I pump the gas it seems to make it more visible. Did I mess something up? If so what do I need to check or fix? Thanks, Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NismoSkyZ Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Is yours manual? Could be a burnt clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonianbrat Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Sounds weird I dont know where there are any speed sensors in there. I think my wifes honda has a speed sensor right next to the ABS sensor on the front drivers side hub. Maybe it is a coincidence and your VSS sensor is acting up. Usually that is how things go for me. I fix one thing and something else goes bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I believe the VSS is in or by the tranny... he would have had to go to some interesting effort to foul that up while doing a ball joint... unless the timing just happens to be a coincidence.
