Speedometer racing when cold

Everytime it is very cold, my speedometer races way beyond normal and I hear a winding nise from the instrument panel. However, once the car heater warms up the interior, it acts normal.

Any suggestions,
Thanks,
MCH

Same exact problem with mine.

But, I'm not gonna pull my dash just for a few cold days.
