Hello guys, Im new here and Im hoping you guys can help me out with a vehicle speed sensor problem. I threw the code for it and speedometer no longer works, and my fuel level drops whenever I accelerate. I cannot locate where this speed sensor is, I have changed a speed sensor on a MKIV GTI, but I cant seem to even find it on the MKV Rabbit. I have the 2.5L N/A 5 cylinder engine. If anyone can help that would be much appreciated, I would like to know how fast Im going lol.

My rpm sender was in front of the block directly over the timing chain. It’s a magnetic pick up. But what your saying may be more related to instrument cluster failure that I’ve seen in mk3 mk4s

I’m telling ya, it might be cluster failure if multiple gauges are starting to go bat shit
Well, I do have a mkiv gti as well, it needed a speedo sensor and the fuel gauge didnt work AT ALL until I got a new speed sensor for it. Im hoping my problem isnt a fuel rail/ fuel pump problem. Thanks for the advice.
