05 LS Speedometer Problem
Hello all,
I have a little problem with the Monte as said in the subject line it is an 05 LS. I have had it for less than an year.
Ok so here is the problem. I was drivin at about 60MPH for about 45min.
when I noticed that my Speedometer was saying 45MPH I knew I wasn't going 45. So Ikept an eye on it and it just kept going down until it reached zero and after that it fell under zero and stayed there.
Now after Igot home I shut the car off for a bit then turned it on and I still had that problem. Went online see if I can find anything but no luck. Good for me the problem somehow went away afterthe car sat in the driveway over night. BUT now when I drive when slowing down the speedometer sort of shakes up and down. Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?
Also is there a Auto Manual for the 05 monte? like the Hanes books or similar? I lookedat Haynes web site and they only have 01 monte manual I know that is the same generation but would this book work with the 05 monte.
Thank you for your help.

RE: 05 LS Speedometer Problem
Not unless you have an extension to the 36K.... Damn, that is a ton of miles for an 05'.....
There are only two things that I know of that could be causing the problem, the gauge cluster or PCM....
Have you pulled any codes on it yet? If not I would just to see what is stored in the system.
It may give us a little more info to go on.
Also, did you pull a CARFAX on it before you purchased it? If not, the $$$ may be worth a look into it's past.

I got it from its first owner he had bought it from a Chevy dealership. Car Fax Confirmed it. The guy was from PA area.
He sold it to get money for the 06 SS model.
He is a friend of a friend.
