Help. G/box switches to sports mode

Hi' I've recently bought a 1995 2ltr 16v estate, with 50,000 miles on the clock. Sometimes the box seems to go into sports mode of its own volition, speedo sticks at 30mph even when travelling at 60. This is the first auto car I've ever owned and would be glad of any pointers as to the problem. I've cleaned the MAF, thought this had cured it, but no, on occasions I'm still dsappearing over the horizon in a cloud of dust, I'm to old to be a boy racer. Cheers Jim

Cheers Dave, The VSS was my next step, will a 2.3 VSS do the job with my 2ltr? Cheers Jim
