Hi all is anyone else's speedo out by 10mph ? As mine is and I want to get it closer to the actual speed I'm doing without pulling the needle off n relocating it is it to do with the gearbox or something plastic causing it anyone got anythin ?
Doubt it lol Its just 80s technology.

if youve changed the wheels for larger sized rims, that can effect the speedo reading
You dont say what speed its 10mph out by.at 90/100 thats how they all are

normally they over-read dont they ?
my car can only do about 90
on the clocks I had my 20xe near the mileage reset button lol sat nav said 137 -limiter in 5th.
1.3 sr said 120-108 on sat nav
1.2 was 110-99/100
1.0 was 100-91
Just an idea.

137's pretty damn speedy
thats a fairly accurate 10 mph over-read on your three 8v's there andy. interesting
im not the only one to ever do it lol
