I don't see a need to correct it once the actual variance is identified. I know that the Mounties don't generally ticket unless you are doing better than 117 in a 100, so I just keep my displayed speed at or under 124 and confidently blow through radar traps. Hasn't failed me yet. I hear the OPP are a bit stickier so I am more careful when I'm on their turf.
mine too are 7 khp faster, so the odometer shows 100k actually is 93k.....?
