Speedometer Problem On 2000 NSX

[AKUDOU]

I noticed while driving today that what seemed to be a comfortable 75mph on the I Road was causing a problem staying in the flow of traffic,not the usual circumstance considering my driving style. Well after about 10 mi of this my thoughts were either something is wrong with my speedometer or everyone else sharing the road was on spring break and was hell bent to get to Florida before morning.I started checking the mile marker posts and after three checks I found out that for every mile the speedometer was charging me 1.2mi. Now I know why I made it home from FT Worth in 12 hrs instead of 1200mi it was around 900.Can I have my speedometer calabrated? The tires are factory stock just checked them they are the same size and brand that"s stated on the window sticker. The car had around 3,400mi when I purchased it in Houston.I have only driven the car to NSXPO and home(Ky) now showing around 5,400.Has anybody out there had a problem like this? I'm getting the feeling of getting charged mileage plus tax.

That's sort of unusual.. Since it's a 2000 it is still under warranty, so I'd say just let dealer sort it out.

Assuming, of course, that you haven't driven over 37,500 miles and the odometer doesn't thus show over 50,000...

I believe Mr. Carguy! has observed a similar situation with his car at one time.

Wow! Now I am Mr. Carguy! I feel very important.

I noticed my spedo on my 2000 was about 7% off, I haven't taken any additional steps to determine what the cause is, but if you do a search on some of my old posts you can see what some of the replies I received to my problem.
