Sounds similar to mine, although mine is only every few days or so. I think it's probably the sensor on the 'box |

search button it'll be either a bad earth - check all connections to the clocks or busted VSS like mine, the sensor in the gearbox. you don't need a working speedo to pass an MOT so I never bothered haha ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |
