Kopite Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Ian C is from around East Anglia somewhere, so's Alex. They know their stuff, might be worth asking them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secondjump Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Check for error codes - main suspect will be a 42 You probably have a problem with the speed signal. Either a faulty speed converter or corrupt odometer are the usual culprits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Unfortunately both me and Alex drive/drove manuals! I don't purport to knowing anything about autoboxes I'm afraid. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 The reason I asked where you were is because theres an autobox specialist in Gravesend I've used before, they were very good and really know their stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Duff speedo covertor / delimiter chip is a likely possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
