#1: Eratic speedo Author: bigdave987, Posted: Sat Apr 13, 2013 3:21 pm ---- Hi all new her and also a virgin 206 owner this is my first one purchased it tonight its a 51 plate gti,all seems to work except the speedo which I noticed jumping from a steady speed to nothing then making its way back again,also as never had one of these do I need to look out for anything likely to bust on me straight away? This has problem been covered a million times and I appologise for that but the more info I can get on the car the better thanks all.

If changing the cluster, ensure you buy one with a lower mileage if you are plexed, or as close as you can if you're non-plexed.
Also worth trying a BSI reset (as it's free)

The shut down procedure can be found in 206 Talk > Beginners Guide to a 206
