If it did not run a tachograph from the factory it may be missing the speed sensor mounting location in the gearbox.

It may also be that you have to get the tachograph fitted and calibrated by a properly approved and licensed body.
mk7 08reg 2.4 T350 LWB MHR RWD
mk6 X reg 2.4 T350 LWB MHR RWD - scrapped
mk4 J reg 2.5 L300 LWB MHR RWD - sold on

Notice a trend there ? not too big and not too small

Hi v8Dave,thanks for the reply,getting it calibrated wont be an issue just trying to sort wiring locations if it even has them.
