Title: 2002 S4 with tach messed up Post by: mattb on May 16, 2008, 10:14:26 AM My tach now points at 10K when I'm at an idle -- the movement seems normal for the most part... Anyone had this issue and/or know how to fix it?
thx Matt Title: Re: 2002 S4 with tach messed up Post by: Speeddog on May 16, 2008, 10:19:30 AM Generally, that's a 'replace it' fix.
Need to buy new, or virgin used unit, as the immobilizer is an issue. Some folks have opened 'em up and re-indexed the needle, with varying success. I'm pretty sure it's a cut-it-open deal, so not the greatest scenario.

I accidentally bumped one of the needles (can't remember if it was the speedo or tach). When I plugged it back in, it re-zeroed the first time I turned the key on. Since it's simple to do, you might want to try unhooking and then reconnecting the battery. |
