    Odd shifts, sometime seems like its not in gear at all. I was reading up on it and that is one of the symptoms of a broken speedometer. Feel this car is cursed sometimes.

    Advance auto sells a generic replacement cable for 8.99. Anyone had any use with one of these? Today the tranny started acting up and I don't think I can wait 7 more days to get it fixed. Thanks.
