    Probebly a dry joint on the back of the speedo. You can resolder to solve or replace the clocks.

     

    Check the search button as this came up for a few people last week :thumbup:

    it will be the speed sensor on the box

     

    get under the car and look on the side of the gearbox the drivers side i think.

     

    the sensor is like a little cylinder about 30mm in diameter with a black plastic plug in the end. this plug comes loose and slides out causing the problems you describe. tap it back in andtap over the edge of the casing a little to stop it coming out.

     

    should fix it
