First problem probably the temp sender.

 

The second problem sounds like speed sensor onto of the gear box is dud.

Think its the blue one mate. Use the search it will have been covered loooads of times :D

 

Not sure exactly where the sensor sits, sorry.

Yellow sensor for the gauge. Blue is for ECU, and black for aircon.
