do you reverse alot?
when u reverse the RSM will count up whereas the dash will go backwards
20km is alot, most of the time mines like .5 Km out at most
reverse for like 20km? i reckon even 5km of reverse is still too much .. way too much
no mate, i dun reverse a lot
haha
i just drive normally
and it's always around that much...not just like once
i tested it for like 8 times already
help me..i dunno why
would it be the settings on my rsm?
rolling diameter of aftermarket wheels will affect the rsm reading and also the stock speedo is not 100% accurate to start with. it will show a little under the actual speed your travelling.
rsm can be setup to take wheels sizes etc into consideration, read the manual or go to apexi website to find it
Yeah what size rims and what profile rubber do you have?Quote:

cos i had the rsm on my previous car..it was perfect match to my speedo....
