Noticed my odometer stopped working and fortunately I log my mileage daily though I rarely drive this car so I know my 928 is within 20 miles of the actual malfunction.
Opened up the dash (so easy it's scary) and pulled out this gear. Appears original which for a 87 with 85k miles could be.

After some searching it appears the 20x21 gear is listed for an 87. Mine is a 20x30 gear. Did some 87's come with different odometer gears? Going to order a new one from odometergears.com.

Just curious. Hopeing all 20x30 gears are the same as they list only one for a 911.

thanks, sawthat, that is where I am getting it. I was curious how common as even that site list a 20x30 for a US 911 and other sites as well. Thats all.

 

Added 2nd link to the above message.....

 

Thanks, but again, I already know of all of the sources to buy them. I just paid for one through odometergears. I was more curious how common this particular gear was.

 

uncommon. rare, only two places to get one

 

I stock the Odo gears in both KPH & MPH 8>)

One gear is for kilometers and the other for miles. I have one of each in captivity so they aren't rare.
