Odometer?
Can it be that speedo/odometer are out of alignment? I have a feeling that my odomerer is slow(?). Where is the sending unit and how do I check if its O.K.
Thanks

The odo and speedo work off each other. Set your cruise at 60MPH and then reset the trip computer and start a 60 second countdown at the same time. At the end of the 60 seconds you should have travelled exactly 1 mile.

there is a way to do this faster. set the cruise at 120, and you should have 1 mile show up in 30 seconds!
