Has anyone had a problem getting a speed sensor to slide on to the speedometer cable? my old one was broken into about 3 pieces when i pulled it off the transmission, i bought a speed sensor from oriely auto parts i am wondering if its just a cheap piece of junk, has anyone tried installing the BWD part number S8058P speed sensor? it just dosnt seem to slide onto the cable far enough and feels like it just wants to spring back no matter what i do i cannot install the cable retaining clip it just dosnt go on far enough.

You aren't supposed to remove the cable clip - it is a tug and push operation with the clip in place. The speedo cable will go into the VSS sensor with the clip is correctly positioned in place.
