Gentlemen,

Can somebody point me to a source of spares please, specifically for my

Thanks,

Are you sure it's not just the output flange loose? IIRC, the speedo gear
is a friction drive and can slip if this is the case.

The flange is tight, all works back to drive.

In which case it might be easier to contact a specialist for your model
for the actual drive since this is more a car maker's part than B-W spare.
The problem being there are likely several gear/drive combinations for
different rear axle ratios, etc. Or is the part difficult to get?
