When installing performance gears, rather than adding electronics to adjust the speedometer for the new gear ratio, can the computer be reprogrammed? I'd rather pay the dealer for an hour's labor rather than add an additional unit. I would think it would be a DRBIII programmable function.

Here's the old thread:

Actually the convertor that came with the performance gears and attaches to the tranny module in the trunk makes it easy to adjust the speedo. Even minor changes due to a change in rear tire size is possible.

Has anyone checked whether this is programmable in the car itself using a DRBIII (or other) scanning tool?

As a matter of fact, my tech seems to think we can.

Any further knowledge in this area? Can the onboard computer be reprogrammed for a change in gear-ratio, or is the additional converter box required?

Thanks.
