Cruise Control display

Hello All,
In my 2008 R320CDI, I have get a message that says something along the line of "Cruise Control Set at 63mph" when I am going 60mph. It seems to be 3-4 miles off.
This is annoying as you can't set the 5mph bump...

My 07 ML320 doesn't do this.

Anyone else see this? Any thoughts?

thanks!

I am a little confused as to what your issue is? In my R500 when I set the cruise control, a slight bump up of the stalk sets it at the speed I am going, a hard bump of the stalk sets it at 5 mile per hour increments. I had to teach this to my wife this week while on vacation. A short bump up/down of the stalk changes speed setting up down in 1 mph increments, hard long bump up/down of the stalk changes the speed setting up down in 5 mph increments. Is yours not doing this? or are you saying when driving at 60 mph you set the cruise control and it increases your speed to 63 mph or...Speedometer reads 60 and cruise reads 63mph at the same time?

I'm saying when I'm driving 60, I set the cruise control and it keeps it at 60, but the display in the center area says "Cruise set at 63". So, when I do the hard/long bump, the center area says "Cruise set at 65", but I'm only really going 62.... The stalk seems to be acting properly. The indicated cruise speed is not matching the actual vehicle speed.
