(1/3) > >>

Jake:
Hi all.
I've fitted 235/85R16 tyres to my discovery and now the speedo is reading wrong. Does anyone know how i can remidy this. Or is it impossible.
Ta :oops:

Thrasher:
....you can - but most of us just work it out ;-)

There is something twirly in the big lump of spinning cogs that works the speedo. You need a different sized one :-)

I'm sure someone will pop along with a part number and the number of hours/days it will take!

strapping young lad:
your speedo will be slow so you need to get it adjusted.. ive seen an article on doing this in an old lr mag

short of going to a garage and having it reconifgured there isnt much you can do if this article isnt available (and i aint got it)

Jake:
I've susted it to being approx 4mph out at 30 (26 on the clock) but its
the other speeds i have'nt worked out yet. Oh well. I'll just have to carry
on then.
Cheers guys.
Merry Xmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paul:
Use a GPS to find out what it should be reading and stick some tape
on it so you can easily work out your speed.

I fitted 235/85's on my Range Rover and it made the speedo read spot
on with my GPS, Must of been reading wrong to start with.
