Would imagine that for your year stated, there may have been some transits that worked the speedo off the ABS system and some that had a sensor on the gearbox.

and you got the wrong speedos

"ALL" Mk6's use a gearbox speedo sensor...only Mk7's and later use the ABS system for the speedo.

It's never had a tacho fitted,it's a recovery truck twin axle,the clocks I put in worked in the van they came out of but don't work in mine. Apparently this is a common fault,the mileage comes on when ignition turned on on then just the lines,the rev counter,speedo and temp gauge all move from resting position but that's it they dont move anymore.he told me that there are multiple earth's under dash which break off from spot welds?
