A little Odd?
Craig is out reving my car trying to get it hot (fan issues etc) and when it gets to 3000 the speedo goes up to 20kms while in Park sitting on the lawn not moving at all......  WTF?

unfortunately commodores do log codes when they're not needed. when you work through the codes listed, start from the lowest number and work up. they tend to throw up BS codes when they get confused too (it's a simple description, but it works) eg I had a MAF problem - forgot to reconnect it after cleaning TB/IAC and it threw up MAF and 3 trans codes. just something to keep in mind when you see lots of codes

They are electronic.
Is it hurting anything when the speedo goes up to 20? I wouldn't worry about it.
