Hi my Suzuki Grand Vitara rev counter jumping all over the place. It only does this when it's winter time, all through the summer works perfectly fine. Could anyone give me any clues what is the problem. It would be very helpful and I would be grateful. It's a 2 Litre petrol engine and has done 83,000 miles? Thank you very much for the help.

The most common reasons a Suzuki Grand Vitara speedometer isn't working are the vehicle speed sensor (VSS), a faulty speedometer, or an electrical issue.
no engine told at all or country.
sold all over earth, with many engines sued.
cracks happen for 2 reasons
overheating the engine
or using only water for engine coolant, in winter , it turns to ICE cracks the engine block and heads in 1/2 total destruction easy as pie done wrong.

quoted:
TS 35 12103, Special Coverage Extension for Specific Crack(s) in the Cylinder Head
SPECIAL COVERAGE EXTENSION FOR SPECIFIC CRACK(S) IN THE
CYLINDER HEAD.
MODEL(S): GRAND VITARA (JB) WITH 2.4L ENGINE
YEAR: 2009 (START OF PRODUCTION THROUGH JULY, 1 2009)
Engine overheating with possible Internal Engine Noise. The engine coolant
may leak from the cooling jacket into the Camshaft Housing of the Cylinder
Head. There will be no external coolant leak and there will likely be evidence
of coolant contamination in the engine oil.
CAUSE: Suzuki has determined that certain 2009 Grand Vitara vehicles may develop
a crack(s) between cylinder head bolt(s) and casting plug(s).
CORRECTION: A special coverage extension will apply for vehicles beyond the basic
warranty limits. The coverage allows repairs to be made for customers at no
charge for parts and labor up to 7 years or 102,000 miles, whichever comes
first, from the date of first use, at authorized Suzuki service points. Cracks in
locations other than the specified areas of the cylinder head do not qualify for
the coverage extension."

vitara petrop
what on earth is that.?
this is a USA forum , you know that?
and we dont have petrops.
nada
nor know which of 56 suzuki engine you have. at all.
ah Petrol (no P)
so what engine we can not guess, engines or countries here,
you must SAY.
I'd be first confirming whether you have a 1.6 litre Grand Vitara (petrol), or a 2 litre turbo diesel. The 2 litre petrol (straight 4 or V6) or 2.5 litre petrol engines are all chain drive.
If your engine is petrol then no lock tool is required (to hold the camshaft). Of course, there is a specific position that an engine should be rotated too before removing the belt from ANY engine.
If it's diesel, then although I'm unfamilar with that particular engine, the general requirement for diesel engines with high pressure injection pumps is "yes, you require a lock tool" to hold the injection pump pulley. As I think these are a common rail set-up, this requirement may not be necessary. Check with your Suzuki Dealer, or maybe someone else here will know more. A similar question may have already been asked and answered here too.
This is a electric heat boost for demisting in winter months, turn fan on to full, heater lever to full and air controll to full. Be warned uses lots of battery power
