1987 325i odometer just quit workingjzanutto 06-06-2005, 06:39 PM my 87 325i odometer just quit- everything else works as normal, except for the trip odometer too. Is the ODO electronic or cable driven???? thanks! jzanutto 06-06-2005, 08:15 PM ok folks- I figured it out! After coaxing the instrument cluster out, I took it apart and took out the speedo. Then the speedo drive geartrain is accessed by taking off a little clear plastic cover. I found a broken tooth in the geartrain, and the tooth was jamming up the gears. I pulled the little tooth out and rotated it by hand and the ODO moved- so mine is now working fine even with 1 broken tooth. Now I see how easy it is to roll an odometer backwards- not that I would do it. Peete 06-07-2005, 04:53 AM You're still going to have problems with your odometer. Go to http://www.odometergears.com/ and order the whole set of gears for your odo. It's not cheap but it's cheaper than a new cluster and you won't ever have to worry about the odo gears again. I did it on my 318i and a buddy got them for his 325. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
