Speedo/Power steering wonky..

Hi guys, have a problem with my speedo/power steering, which i think is(fairly) common..

 

About hlaf the time whilst driving, or from start, the speedo stays at 0 or wanders up and down, finally staying at zero. After about a minute, the power steering goes "strange" ie VERY light or VERY heavy. Normally heavy. From reading other posts, it looks like the speed sensor in the gearbox(?). Is there anyone locally(witley, nr guildford) that can fit a new one or diagnose the problem more thoroughly?

 

Cheers,

 

Tony

    those are the exact symptoms that my mates one had the other day, that was down to a broken speedo convertor, but being a UK you won't have one of these, so I guess it must be speed sensor.
