One thing I failed to mention, pushing in the clutch and letting the engine idle while rolling on that same hill at 30mph makes the noise go away.

Would have never thought of the speedo cable. I'm ashamed to say but it hasn't been lubed since the car has been in my care....which means it has had no attention in at least 6 years and 8,000 miles.

If the weather is nice, I will pull the cable, take the same drive and report back tomorrow.

What lube should be used on the cable?
