I replaced the control cables on by X with the new Teleflex TFXtremes, what a difference, so smooth that I had to check to make sure I had linkage connected at the motor.

I don't think you have to worry for a while yet, my boat is a 98 and they were the original cables. I think I contributed to the problem by keeping the motor tilted up in the slip
