Check the 2 wires coming out of hub behind front passenger side wheel. If broken, reconnect using a standard connection block. The broken speedo might also cause the car to cut out at lights, roundabouts etc. I spent 400 quid trying to get this fixed but ended up fixing myself for 50p.

The speedo can be driven in a number of different ways, one being the standard old fashioned speedo cable, which can break. There is an electronic sensor which gets a signal from the cable and if the cable breaks - no signal to the computer. This often causes the car to stall at junctions.

The cable will need to be changed when everything should then be ok.
