Can someone elaborate on the issue of the speedometer? Does it effect your car? Is it permanent?

Speedometer has to do with tire diameter. If you have or are going to go to bigger tires the Hypertech will allow you to input the tire diameter that you have and adjust the speedo accordingly. I cross checked mine I went with a tire 3" larger then stock and after adjusting for it my GPS said I was right on with the new speedo setting.

No its not permanent. You can always reprogram it back to stock. You shouldn't have to adjust the speedometer unless you changed gears in your rearend or different size tires.

I am sorry I can't answer your questions. My husband took it with him and I haven't seen it.I know he takes it to work, I don't know about the car. But he seems very pleased with the way it works.

I drive wiyh mine all yhe time at those speeds. It has been about 9 months since I installed the top. The only issue I have is one of the side window channels unhooks partially once in a while. It is probably an incorrect adjustment on my part. Had a foot of snow on it the other day and no worries. Hope that helps your decision.

No. I have had them installed for over a year, and have driven at high speed on long trips with no problems. I was also concerned about ice and snow, and off road, but the sensors have not been damaged during any driving condition I have encountered.

I put a speed sensor on the back wheel last winter for time on the trainer. It worked well! I have not tried it on the road so I can not speak to that. The heart monitor would read 0 on occasion if I sat up straight for too long.

No way, no PMD comes with a lifetime warranty. The one I bought went out in a week, and I sent it back for a refund. Do yourself a favor buy it from a local store so you have someone you can actually talk to about it. These damn things can be temperamental and you might need to switch out a few to get a good one. Also don't even both replacing it unless your going to relocate it doing so is like pissing into the wind. Re-locator kits are cheap and worth it.

It might be bad battery. I couldn't make speedometer work with included battery, but when I installed new Li-Ion battery in transmitter, it started to work right away! Schwinn included bad battery, that was it.

Not that I could tell, and the instructions don't indicate that it can. But the heads up feature works very well, and you can keep your eyes and head up. I used it in an older car that I couldn't get the right combination of gearing for the stock speedometer, plus the speedometer was hidden behind the steering wheel, so you really had to look away from the road for too long to see your speed. (Plus the stock speedo only went up to 85 mph)

No, it is read-only and code clearing. It will only tell you what your car's system thinks is it's speed.

I believe DR. speedometer can make those repairs. Check his web sight. Also you can have your local GM dealer parts dept. contact there supplier. you will need the GM. part number off the back of the cluster.

I've noticed the heads-up display remains lit briefly after I turn off the ignition, and I've noticed there's often a lag between the builtin speedometer display and the heads-up display if the car is accelerating or decelerating. Perhaps you're observing the same lag after the car has stopped? I theorize (but do not know for sure) that the heads-up display works by periodically sending a query through the OBD-II interface, asking what the current speed is; then it displays that speed for a certain time; then it sends another query; and so on. If that theory is correct, then when the speed is changing rapidly, the display will fall behind till it makes the next query.

I can't answer this question re: part 10849. However, I will say that I was very unsatisfied with the Auto Meter instrument cluster. The fuel gage didn't work and neither did the speedo and water temp. We tried to fix it but you know what happens when you handle something long enough? You will eventually break it - and I broke mine. If I needed a new instrument cluster I would stick with OEM.

I had the same question myself. I received both the heart monitor and speed/cadence sensor as a gift, so I kept both. The only thing I noticed is that the speed sensor captures speed right away and accurately while gps speed sensor lags on occasions

yes, that is one of its modes, it also produces a report of trouble codes and sensor status when the engine is not running but the ignition key is in the on position. There is a little bit of a time delay between the instruments like rpm on your dashboard and the same display on whatever you have the sx plugged into, at least there is on the old laptop I use to read my codes, admittedly a living fossil.

I would only use it for nothing but the windows/glass itself. Must be very careful with see through plastic. I only use a lint free very soft cloth to wipe speedometer gauges. If there's any residue that needs to be cleaned from it I would just dampen the lint free soft cloth.

I haven't had that problem. I usually go between 9 and 11 MPH and the speed indicator seems to reflect that
1639362
yes, it gives you the option to do so. but when I did to the exact size, my oddometer was no longer accurate (off by around 5mph)... so gotta play with it a bit.
