Hi,

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I think that my Odometer maybe running fast at low speeds. I pulled out of my garage yesterday, and by the time I got to the light at the corner (maybe 250' max.) The trip meter advanced by 0.2. Everytime I pull into the garage I reset my trip meter (B). I've been since monitoring it while driving locally.

I've tested the Odo at higher speeds (locked cruise at 60MPH, and timed 1 Mile) and it looked like its working fine. Is it possible that the Odo is wrong? Or is it most likey my perception?


Thanks in advance
Jarett

0.2 miles is about 530ft. Given a system that rounds to the nearest .1, zeroizing the trip meter would probably result in .2 after 400ft or so. That's only about 135 yards or so, which isn't much

I'd say your Odo is fine

Yeah, your odo is fine; your perception sucks.

0.2 miles = 1036 feet.
