Gonna keep this short and avoid a rant...
Just got in car and noticed the rev counter is stuck on 0.
Not sure whether it was fine when i pulled off then dropped as i was driving.
All other dials are working fine as far as i can see and car is driving and running fine.
Is this common? any suggestions?

Have you checked all the fuses? My old car did that and it was a fuse.

Read the live data, if it's detecting the revs then the cluster is f****d
If not the sensor is knackered

Saxo has always done it, diagnoses equipment doesn't work with it so I checked all the fuses, replaced the cluster and it is still doing it.
Haven't got round to trying anything else yet
