Hey Thanks everyone for their comments re my issues withe the speed sensor.
It seems the newly installed system (Blaupunkt DX-V) is not designed for late model vehicles with "Computer Area Network" systems. The sensor pick up does in fact publish a sine from the trans and puts it on the network for the system to use, unfortunately the Blaupunkt DX-V SatNav can't pickup and convert a sine and apparently there is no converter to do the job.
My fitter at Audiocom advised me Blaupunkt are aware of the issue even as new vehicles were being released, but decided to rely on the installers/fitters/suppliers to do the ground work on resolution and workarounds.
I am now at a point (disappointed) that I will have to return the unit and try for something else less technical and less attractive.
Again thanks to all for your input, and if you come up with something new..... please post it up, I will be waiting.

Kindest Regards
