2000 Southwind v10 32v. came back from a 1400 mile trip, got within 100 miles of home, speedometer quit, wouldn't run over 55 and the light on the shifter was blinking. The VSS on top of the rear end is held on by 1 10mm bolt. At home I pulled it off. it was covered in fine metal powder material, it has a magnet inside it and it attracts any metal in the gear oil. I changed the rear end oil,(aprox 4 gallons). Mine has 108,000 miles on it. I changed the VSS but the old one worked fine after cleaning with a rag, all the lights went away and everything works fine. The rear end is silent.
