I would have said the speed sensor, which is fitted to the gearbox is faulty. But as your trip meter is working sounds like you need a new speedo.

Thats with both cars that have the similar problem.

LOL terzo320 Thats what i thought at first till i was thinking of when i sell her one day people looking at it might think less then 1k traveled in a few years might be odd lol! No plans to sell her yet though unless a 22b or an RS4 comes within financial reach! My mate just brought a Terzo 3, Dam nice, Any idea how muck bhp they are standard? We can't find out!!
