    Randomly when I start the card first time, both speedo and rev counter
    dials go round to about the 2 o clock position, stay there for a few
    seconds and then return to normal. Any ideas please?

    TIA

    cheers,
    Len

    Embarrasing to say that I haven't had chance to wash it for ages!! I
    suspect the battery might be on its way as on cold morning when I
    start driving with the lights on, they seem to dim as I change gear?
    Having said that, it's the original battery and the car is March
    2001!!!

    cheers,
    Len

    Also check the 306 favourite---battery earth leads. One from the
    battery to the gearbox and then to the chassis. Give the ends a good
    tug.
