The VDO odometer, also used in Volvo and Porsche, is prone to gear slippage and eventual failure. It is particularly sensitive when it is reset while the car is moving, hastening failure.
DIY repair instructions are on the forum, but there's no telling when it will fail again. There are also shops that repair them. |

There's a good article on how to fix the older mechanical odometers here:
