W205 C220 - Speedo HALF the real speed!
Hi all,
THis is my first post and I seem to have an issue that I can't see anywhere else on this site!
My W205 C220 Estate that I picked up yesterday as a used car is underreading the speed by 50%! This happens on the digital readout, in the satnav and on the dial!
I assume that this didn't happen for the 15k miles that the original owner had it for, the car had a full service at a dealer two weeks ago when the garage I bought it from first took it in (direct from Merc Financial Services) so I assume it's a software glitch from that service?
Anyway, it's booked into my local dealer next Monday for them to sort it under warranty but I just wondered if anyone else had ever seen or heard of anything similar?
Many thanks
