Speedo not working , gearchanges all wrong.Guess it's speed sensor.Is it a job to fit and do they cost a fortune?
Thanks

About £35 and if you have access to the under side of the car quite easy. the instructions are on the main site http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/manual/electrical/intbasic/VSS.pdf
If you are careful, you do NOT have to remove the heatsheilds

I have problem with speedo not working and then reading 20mph when doing around 40mph.Obviously speed sensor problem but can anyone tell me if the speed sensor on a manual deisel is the same as the one on a 2.9 12v auto?
