So, the odometer is purposely MORE accurate than the speedometer.

And, I *see* that ≈+2 mph offset on my SGII on both 2004 & 2009 Pontiac Vibes, 2011 Chebby Cruze, and newest 2014 Prius. So, it looks *universal* to me.
Thats interesting. Ill have to double check my cts, but the gauge consistently reads 1-2mph faster than the digital readout.
