Problem with speedo and tranny
My sc3 (auto) is having a little bit of problems right now. The speedo started to go crazy on me and just flickers back and forth really really fast. (from like 50 to 140 mph) Then once it starts doing that the car starts to feel as if it is going to stall if you keep it in drive. Does anyone know whats the deal with my car? Thanks for any advice or suggestions.

Not unless you plan on using it inside the faulty computer.
(no, that wil not help).
The computer is my guess, but you REALLY need to pay for a diagnostics on the machine. You always come out cheaper that way with problems like THIS one.

As for your problem, when my alternator had fried but I was still driving my car on battery power, my cluster started to go CRAZY right before my car died. Whenever I hit the brakes or used the blinkers, everything would start goin up and down just like your problem. So it has somethin to do with not getting enough power/ground

Hey man,
It seems like you may have more than one issue here - but a bad ground I would say would be your first culprit. Putting on a grounding kit won't necessarily help because you may not have a new ground installed on where the problem lies.
I would say your best bet is to bite it and bring it in for diagnostics - then report your finding here and we can see if we can help you go from there with what they tell you.
Good luck,
Jonny
