I swapped in a VDO cluster into my 325i and now it seems like the speedometer is reading about 10% faster than I am really going. Do I need a different coding plug? I know the moto's have an adjustable speedo and the vdo's do not, but I did not think it would be a 10% discression. Any ideas? Thanks!

The difference between porcupines and BMWs is that porcupines have the pricks on the outside! -
how is the speedo adjustable? i have a moto and it shows 45 at 40 and 85 at 75. its a little annoying.sigpic

I have not done this personally, but from my searching apparantly there is a slide inside the cluster on the speedo that you can adjust + or - to compensate for differences in minor tire size. I don't think it adjusts more than 5% though!The difference between porcupines and BMWs is that porcupines have the pricks on the outside!Comment

the size of the wheels doesn't tell you much about the size of your tires :pOriginally posted by McGyver View PostComment
