[QUOTE="bimmerdude, post: 16952, member: 13351"] I just found out something interesting about our bmws from the US bimmer forums' FAQ section:"Q: My speedometer reports a higher speed reading than my GPS (or the radar of the cop who pulled me over, not that I am complaining...). Is there something wrong with my car? Does that affect my odometer or service readings?A: BMW over-reports the speed at which you traveling (typically 3-5mph or 4-8km/hr depending on speed). This is an intentional correction by BMW and only affects your speedometer reading and cruise control speed setting. Everything else including odometer, mpg reading and service readings are accurate and unadjusted. "Now i know why that cop never pulled me over :) [/QUOTE]
