Bit of a odd one but I've noticed on my rallye that it randomly resets the trip meter on it own. It's not at a set mileage or anything it seems completely randomly as sometimes it will reset at 5 miles and sometimes 20odd..

Anyone experienced this before?

Hmmm...

Never seen this issue before, I would take a guess at the cluster being faulty. A very odd one though.

I take it you've checked that the button isn't stuck?

The Omex ECU shouldn't make a difference, I'm still going with the odometer is faulty in some way, especially seeing as the fault appears randomly.

Do you know anybody who you can quickly swap clusters with to rule it out?

No unfortunately not. I don't use the car often so just something I've noticed since the ecu was fitted but could of been doing it before that as well as only drive it once before it had new engine and ecu etc. the clips that hold the plugs in to the cluster I know one is missing so could be that I guess not making a true conection iirc I think its the yellow plug

Quite possibly, have you tried contacting Matt from here with the Nile Blue '6'? I'm sure he's in your area and he might not mind swapping clusters for a few miles to see if the problem disappears or swaps cars.
