• why not fix the one you have?
  
  there is a 99% chance that the replacement will quit working soon as well..
  
  its VERY COMMON for vw odometers to quit working, or skip alot..
  
  the problem is a split gear. the solution is a drop of super glue..

• Repair sounds good. I'll dig into it. The previous owner reset the trip meter while driving and the ODO went out. The speedometer is still working.
  Thanks.
