Speedometer / Oddometer issues
Hi all. New member here thanx to the 2007 Mustang I recently purchased. I took it to work the last month and noticed that the odometer registered the trip as 1.6 Kilometers (yes...I'm in Canada) more than my other cars. I checked the speedo using my GPS and discovered it was out by quite a bit. At 60 KPH (about 38 mph) my GPS shows I was only doing 50 (31 MPH) , and at 120 (75 MPH) GPS said I was only doing 100 (62 MPH). I had it checked by an independent shop and the tire size (P235 55 Zr17) was programmed correctly with a 311 rear end. I took it to Ford (twice) and they played with for an afternoon while it was connected and I went along for the ride. Long story short, they couldn't fix it. The Ford program only allowed 4 different options for tire size and two for rear end differential and none of them seemed to make a difference. I checked the forum and it has been addressed before but nothing offered seems to apply. I think 13 MPH out at hiway speeds is a little bit too excessive and Ford has no idea how to fix it. I bought it used with VERY low mileage, and if this has been going on since new, I figure it has about 1200 miles more on the odometer than it has actually driven. Other than that, I am enjoying the car and it is just plain fun to drive. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. THANX!!
