Question

Which is worrying, as Terzo + no speedo = 3 points

The problem happens straight after starting, and if you fiddle with the trip/overall mileage button it springs back into life. Once it's started working it's fine until the engine's turned off. Anyone got any ideas?

Mike,
I had a similar problem on my STI4.
It took them ages to finally sort it.
Basically they thought it was the KMH->MPH convertor and swapped that 3 times before concluding it was the speedo all along.
New speedo was done 3500miles ago and has been good as gold since.
I got mine swapped under a private (non Subaru) warranty, but you might be ok on the standard warranty.

Thanks for the tip.

Garage has already had one crack at fixing it, to no avail, so I'll find out exactly what they replaced and pass on your suggestion.

I've got problems with my speedo, (Terzo as well!!)

I haven't spoken to the dealer yet as it's intermittent, somedays
it's dead, then springs into life or it will read 120mph until stationary. or it just sits the wrong side of the plastic rest!

Steve.
