speedometer issues
Hi there,
I just bought an used X1 from 2018 sDrive20i. On the test drive everything was fine. After getting it from the dealer yesterday, I've noticed that the speedometer is not showing the right speed, it only shows about 70% of the real speed (measured with google maps...). First I thought it was set to mph instead of kph (since I'm in Europe). But that wasn't the case, I checked it. Anyone know what that could be? Cheers and thx in advance |

Remember that Google Maps (and similar apps) uses your cellphone's GPS+A-gps (cell towers) to try to guess your current speed. So, any lack of signal will display an incorrect speed. If I were you, I would trust my speedo =).
