Which speedo?
« on: 18 July 2012, 08:35:24 pm »
Right anyone know
Tdi, series 3 box and transfer case, 3.45 diffs and 7.50 tyres
Fed up of guessing my speed, so how many tpm needs to be on the front of my next speedo?
Does anyone read these? Does anyone know what half the crap down here means?

I would say summat like 3.54 / 4.7 = 0.75, so 1408 x 0.75 = 1056 and 1376 x 0.75 = 1032.

Finding summat with a TPM of between 1032 and 1056 I would assume would be the closest match, however I ain't no expert and could have **** that calculation up totally.
