This is a problem I've had twice now. First the speedo died, the the check engine light came on. On the first occasion I pulled over, lifted the bonnet and looked (while the engine was ticking over). As I pulled away the speedo started to work again.
Last night, same symptoms so I pulled over and switched off. Restarted and it was still not working, so I pulled over, and lifted the bonnet while the engine ticked over. As I pulled away - it was still not working. Then a mile later it burst into life.
Anyone have any idea what's going on please?
The car is an STi IV, and was recently given its 15,000 service.
