STi Speedometer Off By 3 to 5 MPH
I have 400 Miles on my STi. Here is a little bug I found with my STi. I tested my Speedometer. I suggest you test yours. I will ask my dealer to fix the problem.
Displayed Speed Vrs Actual
35 MPH = 32 Mph
45 Mph = 41.8 Mph
55 Mph = 51 Mph
65 Mph = 61.5 Mph
70 Mph = 66 Mph
Tested with Garmin GPS Emap and a Friendly Police officers radar gun.
To cruise with traffic at 70 Mph I will need to go a displayed 75 mph.
Just think of the lost warantee miles.

Just hope the dealer doesnt say.. yes you are correct bad speedo.. we will put in another for you...hmm TMU STI.. true-milage unknown... sticker on your car from dealer... logged in Subaru computer.. resale never ever the same... I have seen cars lemon lawed over bad speedos.. but most of those were adding or subtracting miles and deemed TMU, hopefully Subaru has a better fix for a speedo off a few MPH..
