    common fault on the 5, my gauge has got a mind of its own, cant be bothered to sort it...your better of buying a GPS system i.e road angel or even sat nav, they all display your speed.....maybe even hard-wire it in to replace the current speedo, or mount it wherever you like....i`m thinking of losing the speedo guage altogether, and replace it for somthing else. However, i would not touch any of the other guages i.e temp, oil press, and rev counter etc...good luck

    Re: speedo cable

    When you say you've got the one piece cable do you mean you've got the Phase 1 version that doesn't have the connector on the passenger suspension turret??

    Either way the best way of changing it is intercooler, airbox & pipework all on the right hand side of the engine out then grope around from above & below the car to get the sender out.

    Pulling the complete sensor through the bulkhead is a bit of an arseache as it's moulded together with the turbo boost gauge feed Iirc?

    As Outlaw said, before you go pulling everything out though just give that connector a clean up on the passenger side suspension turret & that may cure your problems!
