hey guys my friends em1 speedo is way off.
its always displaying between 10-20kmph faster that wat it really is.
is it some as simple as replacing the vss? or could it be something else?

thanks

maybe your wheel offset is too big

are you running on 20" wheels or what?

Did you just recently buy the car off someone? How many Ks have it got now?
An inaccurate speedo is a sign that the unit has been tempered with (usually to rewind the kms back). If not, it needs to be recalibrated again.
