2022 Wildtrak Speedometer reading 2mph fast

[Scott R Nelson]

That's normal for every car.

This is the correct answer. What other cars have you owned that were more accurate?

For the record, of the 22 cars that I've owned, only one has had an accurate speedometer, my 2014 Escape. The Bronco seems to be off by 1 mph somehow, rather than by a percentage, when compared to a GPS unit. Years ago I had a 1980 Suburban that was off a good 15%. I had to put a gearing adjuster on the speedometer cable of that one. I also owned a 1993 Ducati that was reading about 20% high, but I didn't have a GPS unit at the time to find out how bad it really was.

I was reading 3mph fast on my sasquatch. I put 37s on and mine is spot on now.

Bikes are notorious for being off. I had a ZX6R once that I topped out around 173 or so on the speedo but the GPS said 156.
