    I took my 1985 308QV for a drive yesterday and noticed the speedometer and the odometer were not working.

    I know they both worked fine the day before.

    any idea on what the issue could be

    sending unit is going bad

    It's common and another reason why the milage on these cars cannot always be trusted.

    Don't worry, it's a driveway repair. Call these guys for the part http://www.trutlands.com/

    On that note, my spedo is exactly 10mph faster no matter what speed i am going. Is there an easy way to adjust that?

    It happens to mine, maybe 2-3 times a year. All I do is tap on the dial and it starts working again.
