On my old car 1995 c180, the speedo dose not work for 3 to 5 mins, then it is ok, when I stop the engine and re start it, yet 3 to 5 mins again, then it all works.
It is only the speedometer, now this is not the end of the world but just wondered why it dose this.
:crazy:
 
Sounds like the needle is sticking against the stop.
 
W202 was one of the first MB models to be heavily dependant on electronics , and they are known for gremlins in this area .
 
Heat inside the cluster softens the paint and the needle sticks to the needle stop.
Try a thump on top of cluster to see if it gets the needle moving.
