2005 Subaru Forester Speedometer Is Not Working

Some Subaru Forester owners report experiencing issues with the driver side front CV axle, including clicking sounds when making turns at low speeds, which may indicate a failing axle. Additionally, symptoms such as grease leaking from the CV axle boot and a rhythmic grinding noise during acceleration, particularly when turning sharply, have been noted. In more severe cases, owners have reported that one wheel may lose power, causing the vehicle to pull to one side. If the CV joint were to break while driving, it could result in the wheel no longer turning, rendering the car immobile. It is crucial for owners facing these issues to have their vehicles inspected by a qualified mechanic, especially since repairs may be covered under warranty. Contacting the dealership or warranty provider for coverage details is recommended to ensure prompt resolution of the CV axle problem.

Some Audi A6 Quattro owners report experiencing issues with their gas and speedometer gauges not functioning, often attributed to a faulty sensor. Common causes include problems with the vehicle speed sensor (VSS), a malfunctioning speedometer, or electrical issues. A faulty speed sensor can lead to inaccurate speed readings, affecting fuel flow and ignition timing, and may result in erratic behavior or a complete stoppage of the speedometer. Additionally, issues with the sending unit, bad wiring in the gas indicator circuit, or problems in the speedometer circuit can impact the fuel gauge's functionality. In some instances, a malfunctioning speed sensor may even trigger the ABS light and cause the speedometer to stop working altogether. It is advisable for owners experiencing these issues to have the sensor checked and replaced if necessary to restore proper functionality.
