Unidentified Whining Noise & Erratic Speedo

[garvin_j]

Hope someone might be able to help me out here. I have a couple of problems that may or may not be linked in a 2003 fiesta.

When driving there is a whining noise and when braking sometimes a kind of grinding noise - grinding not always happening - mostly when braking going downhill.

Also have a problem with the speedo intermittently - I'll be driving along at 50kph then all of a sudden the speedo will jump up to 120kph and oscillate around for a bit then land back on 50kph as expected.

Haven't been into Ford yet for a diagnosis, any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

J

The whining noise could be the girlfriend next to you...they turn into a moan when you marry em

Fiesta did have a cluster problem on the early models...check gearbox level too for noise...guessing your brakes are ok too for grining noise...or stone in the back plate??
