Peculiar Speedo Readout

[lundinoir]

I've notice that sometimes, just for a split second, the speedo drops to zero when rapidly changing numbers. I've no idea how often this is actually occuring as I'm mostly concentrating on the road and have seen this a couple of times when my eyes have glanced at the dash. The analogue speedo is unaffected.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I thought I'd spotted mine do something similar once or two. Thing is it happens so quickly, and like you say its is the figures are usually climbing rapidly so you're busy looking ahead at the time. I suspect its a 'feature' since I'm sure I spotted mine do it ages ago and it hasn't got any worse/gone wrong at all.

Mine does it too! Not so much since they last re-wired it (the A/C drive belt went kamikazee around the wiring loom) but its still there...

Hi,

Mine does it as well, reads properly then splits to zero and then back. I've already had a new speedo sensor and the old one did the same (changed the first cos it stopped working). I guess its one of those "oh they all do that sir". Happens enough to notice but you have to be looking at right moment to see it happening.

That also happened to my 2004 T350t then the pod died completely. Pod taken out and sent back to Blackpool for two weeks, since refitted never had another problem except on a track day when cornering hard the pod bleaps. I mentioned the year because i heard TVR upgrded the pod but i dont know when.

And I thought it was my eyes playing tricks on me! I'll cancel the trip to the opticians

Mine does that and it has done from the start. Personally I am not concerned by it.

Yes, I too have spotted this 'glitch' - it only happens for a split-second, though, and it's pure fluke that I've spotted it in the past!

mine did it during the test drive and Fernhurst said they would fit a new 'sensor' (sorry, forgotten the technical term temporarily) on the rear wheel. however I would say the fault with mine was a little more servere as it dropped out for minutes at a time rather than just a quick drop down to zero.

i'll keep my eye on it and post back once i've formed a conclusion as to whether the new part has resolved the problem or not.

And TVR are waiting on 80 odd which are on order - no info as to when they are going to arrive.
