hey in three months been through 3 dash clusters cause my trip metre has stopped workin the third wich only lasted 2 days the second time i reset it it did not start again the first 2 were 300 + oddo so i wasnt concerned but this last one was only 200 and from a always garaged vehicle so the gears should be fine!!? is this an electrical prob or is the a soulution???? cheers
It's a tiny plastic cog in the speedo that fails - they cost under $15 on Ebay to buy and come with instructions on how to fit. This is very common on all VDO speedometers fitted to Aust made cars.
Edit....just checked - they're $8.99 delivered! ODOMETER COG HOLDEN COMMODORE VN VP VR VS SPEEDO GEAR | eBay

The original cog is rubber and has a little grease on it from new. The rubber goes soft and fail. The new plastic cogs should give longer service.
