    After this I would try a different SLABS computer in place of it
    I'd check the road speed reading reported in Td5 ECU instrument mode before touching the wiring.
    If that is ok then SLABS, wheel sensors are fine....

    No speedo correction fitted (yet).

    headign back to Katherine tomorrow will check road speed on Nanacom on the way Down.

    my understanding is it will be out anyway because of the tyre size.

    I have a truspeed. Bought the last one 4x4 intellagance had in stock before they shut down.

    Interstingly it had super lift markings on it. I purchased another one from super lift for my Kia Sportage (which I didn't endd up needing as a R&P change fixed the speedo reading) from America and it was the same model.

    cheers Chris
