Chewing Speedo Drives
« on: 23 November 2009, 21:54 »
My '88 Gti 16v keeps chewing up speedo drives.  Onto my third one but after about 500 miles the speedo needle starts jumping and then goes dead.  When I take the drive out it's scored all the way round.

Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Worn drive gear in the box.
