Hey. I am more than sure that my speed rads at least five kph more than i am actually going. My TE has had the original four speed replaced and a five put in. Could this account for the innacurate reading?

Is there a quick fix for this or should i take it to a mechanic? Also, would anyone know how much it would cost to fix?

As i have just got my P's i don't want to lose them for speeding just cos the speedo is fucked.

Cheers

Erm, yeh the stocks are still on and the 5 speed was put in about 5 months ago by the previous owner so i would have no idea whether the cable is the old on or the new one.
