Post by: ean8 on 02 June 2014, 18:00

Maybe you should start under the bonnet rather than assuming its your rev counter thats at fault ?!?

This is a very common problem with the instruments on the mk2 (had it myself - I assume your counter is dropping/bouncing and simultaneously your water light flashes about three times?), there's been several threads over the years about it on here so if you do a search you should find some suggestions.

I'd maybe check your earths first?
