Hey,

Just bought my '98 contour this weekend and am loving it so far. Just a few questions:

1. Odometer and trip odometer were working fine and then they just stopped at 84,999 KMs. Wouldn't roll over to 85,000 KMs. The trip odometer also stopped? Any ideas on what this could be. Everything else on the instrument cluster still working fine.

2. There is a slight grinding noise when shifting into 3rd. Doesn't always happen, but most of the time. Is this a sign for the need of a new clutch? Would the transmission cocktail solve this problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Randy.
