View Full Version : Scangauge over reporting with correct speed

So my scangauge is over reporting km's, 10.6 km on the scangauge but odo says 10km. But my speed setting is accurate. Also the fuel consumed is fairly accurate as well, 2.4% last fill up.

Anyway i've been reading what to do about over reporting, how changing the speed offset will fix the problem. Does it matter if the speed on the scangauge is completely off to the speedometer?

On my Honda my speedometer is about 3% higher than the SG, but the odo is only off by about 0.5%. I just keep it close to the odo since that is more relative to FE than speed. The way I think of it is what we want is M(iles)PG so speed isn't relative.

^--- What he said. You'd think that a car's speedometer and odometer would be in agreement but they usually aren't. Stick with matching the distance and don't worry too much about the speed on the Scangauge.
