so this is kinda funny..
this past weekend, i was driving on the freeway going 70-80 when i noticed my mph gauge was way past the limit. looked like i was going 130 or something.
when i would slow down, the gauge wouldn't go down.
i'd have to turn off the car and it'll go back to 0.
when i start the car again, it'll slowly creepy back up until it hits the limit again.

so anybody know what the issue is with this? bad cluster? speed sensor?

lol, it does seem entertaining..Now you can tell people you went 30mph when you were parked

As for a suggestion, maybe try replace your speed sensor?
