When I got my car the speedo & odo weren't working. I've finally got it all working (required new angle drive AND new speedometer). The speedometer is reading dead-on (verified w/ my gps) but the odo reads exactly half of the actual amount traveled!

OK, so sure this is a great way to keep the mileage low, but while I've still got the speedo unit out and cracked open I'd like to fix this if possible. anyone seen something like this before? I haven't been able to find anything in the archives.

I had mine apart at one time, and being it is exactly have, one of you tiny little gears is not doing it job or missing.. problem is unless your carefull and know what it is you want to do with the odometer gears you may destoy the configuration, even so if you know alot but do not have the right experience and tools.. cheaper if you count your time involved and easier too to either get another one or send it to...

they can install glass and a new ring while they are at it...
