The speedo works perfectly, but the odometer has a problem where if there isn't enough inertia in the gearing inside the gauge, when the tenth of a kilometre dial hits zero it cogs and stops rotating. 8-) End result being that until the next time the car drives over a bump with enough acceleration being provided by the engine, the odometer stops clocking over. I'm going to pull the instruments out soon when I get a replacement set and see exactly what's broken but I'm sure it's just one tooth on a small plastic gear, going by my observations of the fault. Hardly expensive, but it means the car will fail it's next rego inspection which is due in May next year.
