Speedo only works when accelerating, drops as soon as you ease off, and also noticed, when idling (car at a stop) when you blip the accelerator, the speedo needle jumps slightly too.
Also, a question about the mirrors, neither are working, but the motors make a clicking noise, where's the first place to look to get them workign again?

i had the same problem, turned out to be the wires on the sensor on the diff had corroded right at the ends, cut them back joined them back together and problem solved

I was thinking of the connector, was about to check it until I noticed it jumping when at idle...it's then I would have thought it would be an electrical fault somewhere at the cluster...?
