So was doing some work on the interior. Which ill posting pics up very soon. and removed some cables to the center console. Took it to my dads shop and had his mechanic (Mercedes Benz Tech) remove the teleaid error. I got back in the car and everything was german. Not paying attention at first. I noticed something was off..LOL..

Im gonna take it back to him tomorrow to see whats going on. Just thought i would mention it on here unless someones had the same experience before.

My guess would be the analog speedo needle is on KPH and your digitial display is still on MPH. The ratio of KPH to MPH is about right.

Yeah this. lol

Change the center display and take some pics with the needle showing crazy speeds. lol

100mph will show 160 on the needle

125 mph will bury the speedo past 200 lol

Yip, 18mph is close to what the needle shows:

(18mph x 8) / 5 = 28km/h
