First grab the top of the dash from the rear. You will feel two identations in the plastic for you to pull up on. Pull up and remove the back side of the dash top. It can be stubborn but pull firmly. EASE the top of the dash over the fron portion and set to one side.

remove the tyre hubcap. there is a metal cap over the bearing and down the center runs the speedometer cable and housing. A little clip holds it in. Remove the clip and keep it handy to reinstall. Pull the cable out from the rear.

you have to get to the back of the speedo, undo dash, there will be a cable running from back of speedo to the gear box. tie string to speedo end and pull through fire wall then attach new cable to string and pull through. carefull with dash they never make them easy to take out,Why are so many ugly cars coming out in 2010?
first check your left front wheel center cap. there is a slot in the cap that the cable fits through. if its not there,pop off the cap and make sure cable fits into it.Whats wrong with my vw golf MK4 1.9 GT TDI?

Well, lets see if it is just tha cable first. The speedo is driven by the front wheel. If you pull off the hubcap you will see in the very centre of the wheel a little squarish knob about 1/8 x 1/8" held in place by a clip. Slide the clip sideways(you need a screwdriver to force it out) and then you can take off the centre dust cap where the knob is in the centre of. As you evenly pull off the cap, the square knob will disappear into the square hole - . The cap covers the grease that lubricates the wheel bearing. That sqare knob is the drive part of the speedo cable. What I do here is really inspect the square wire end and the square hole - are they square or does one rotate inside the other? You know, a round peg in a square hole does not have to turn with the hole.
Now pull lightly on that cable. Does more of it come out? Does it come out. It shouldn't. Does it come out and the other end is an unwound coil spring piece of wire? That is broken.
The other end is behind the speedometer. You have to undo the nut which holds the cable to the speedo. Can do the job with your fingers. The whole black cable housing is pulled from the car. And the whole cable is the part you replace.
That is the easy lucky way.
The other way is to remove the speedometer from the dashboard. You could buy a new one from the dealer, or you could also go to an auto salvage yard and try to score one there...and reinstall the same way you uninstalled it.
