Hmm...maybe it was put back together with a different speedo gear on the drum.

Using something like the Dakota Digital speedo correction box might be an option.

Are we talking about a 4l60e? Unless he reflashed your computer your speedo should read fine. It might be a good idea to remove the sensor and make sure it was not damaged. Also inspect the connector for it. Vince B

It probably would. I'd pull the sensor and inspect it and the speedo gear inside the trani for damage. If everything inside looks alright, I'd try a new speed sensor.

BTW, the size of the error is not likely to be the same at various speeds. Just sayin.

Good luck.
