Looking good. Feels good to have a full service with new box oil.
Next time its better to fill the gearbox from the filler - look for the plastic butterfly nut on the front side of the box just under the clutch cable. Looks like youve filled it from the breather.
@Oggy172 - Just paid you to renew.
For others that are dubious - this has been absolutely flawless and had no issues at all. £30 for the year is an absolute bargain when it usually costs £9.99 a month.
Im pretty sure ive seen pics of your car last week. Did you have a guy called Anthony who has a red Trophy helping you with your rear brakes and had a bleed screw break. Car looked amazing in his pictures if it is yours - was a silver 172 with silver brembos, cant be too many in Melbourne.

This was only half the things I asked.
For the sake of a few pounds you should replace the retaining bolts (with copper grease)
You'll need 3 hands otherwise when swapping discs and also the disc may move a little when swapping wheels.

I'm with Steve , sounds like its the clocks. turning the lights on illuminates the clocks which may affect the circuitry somehow.
Never heard of this problem before to be honest. I've heard of the Speedo needle dropping to zero when there is an issue with the earth strap that links the gearbox...
