Can an S5 Speedo be calibrated?
Can an S5 Speedo be calibrated?
Like the title says.. For some reason my speedo is ~4mph fast.. I know it doesn't matter, but it's bugged me since I bought the car. And If the needle is anywhere under 80, it bounces just a hair (assuming gravity plays a part in that). It's the little crap that gets to me.. Don't get me started on dash rattles!!
Yes, mechanical speedos can be calibrated.
It's done by putting a small gearbox between the cable and the gauge, the gear ratio in the box brings the speedo into the correct reading.
I had it done to my 240Z several years ago.
