    Anyone notice this/have this problem?

    A few hours ago was driving and noticed the needles were moving in a jumpy manor. RPM would jump, not a huge spike but just not a smooth fluid movement. And same for the speedo got to a point where my speedo stopped for a brief second and when at a light it wouldn't actually fully hit 0.
    Was in stop and go traffic some what but was accelerating and then needle got to maybe 10km and stopped moving when I was closer to 20km then had to stop so it started to work again, as soon as I got up over 60km/h it seemed to reset itself though.

    Just drove home from the girlfriends now and it was fine but wtf? Can't go to the dealer because obviously they will say 'can't replicate'
    Is this part of the odometer trip resets TSB or new issue?

    2017, trd offroad 32,000km (20,000 freedom units)

    Nobody seems to have any idea what is causing it or how to fix it. Had an engineer look at it and everything. I'm hoping more people take their trucks in with this problem so they can dig deeper into the underlying issue.
