Sounds like the crank angle sensor is playing up when it gets hot. This will also affect the tacho.
Was there any fault codes?.
Was told if engine light doesn't keep flashing after starting that it did not keep the code, as i'm a newbie I have no idea if this is true and only had the car for 2 weeks now so haven't added any additions like scan gauge or modified it as yet.
