1996 Nissan pickup mileage: 49,000. There's a vibration/rattle coming from under/behind the steering column, around the pedals only after reaching speeds of 60 mph. Above 60 mph, the vibration increases in frequency and volume. Releasing the accelerator causes this noise to stop but the noise starts as soon as you press the accelerator again. The noise also stops when turning on the air conditioner. Advice has been from the u-joint to the tachometer cable, but a Nissan dealer told me that the Nissan truck does not have a tachometer cable, that it is electrical. Any advice as to where to start looking for the problem would be appreciated.
