Lino recently had the same problem:

zerothread?id=214882

zerothread?id=228054

It'll either be the sensor or the cluster.

A week after i replaced the speed sensor i replaced the speedometer cluster and puff wa la the problem has been solved now for 4 days no problems at all.

My problem has been resolved. I replaced the cluster and everything has been working well ever since.

The speed sensor was already replaced by the previous owner, because of complaints of the same problem. He then returned back to the dealer, bacause that didn't resolve the problem. It was always an intermittent issue and it was the cluster ultimately in my case that was the fix.

Good Luck!

I bought a used one from a person who parted out an Active Q, which was necessary as the Active Q has a specific cluster. You check in the classifieds section here on the forum or ebay.

I used this site to get me started with removing the cluster:
