Could just be a loose connection in the harness plug in the back where it plugs in?

VSS - vehicle speed sensor - known problem on them.

[Trooper2]

If the car is an auto trans and the VSS is knackered the trans doesn't know when to shift and shifts all over the place.


Just a bit of a diagnostic clue with an auto trans car, not saying the car in question is..
