Here's one post...
Speedometer accuracy
You can also get vehicle speed in kph through the ac/heater controls. This speed is supposed to be actual speed without the safety margin.

Scroll to 20c.
When in this diagnostic mode the heater controls maintain the last temperature setting.
I believe this only works up to the 2000 model year.
I'm not sure if the dealer can remove the error.
