obi: Wow! Yours is *really* bad.
Mine does get exponentially worse, but not quite as big a variance of 10mph+. Like I said, on average, 55mph = 61, 65 = 72, and 75 = 83.
Yet, on the slower speeds, it's pretty much dead-on. I guess this could kinda explain the poor gas mileage that I've been getting.. my odometer is probably off by a few miles! Okay, it isn't exactly "poor" mileage, but I'd rather get 28-30 highway, than the crappy 23-25 that I get right now. Probably doesn't help that I have a lead foot, and the car has no turbo / a non properly-functioning turbo.
Anybody have a way to fix this speedo issue?
