If it does move but doesn't match, you can change that in the ECU to make it match.
Well that does require some detail on the reference voltage to that of the temperature on the gauge and it can all ... |

Is the speedo healer behind the dash or next to the ecu?

Do it.
It's more eminent on a r380 with vague shift and I didn't notice much change on mine after fitting as mine was shifting good. But when I drove another the movement of the stick was so much t ... |

For that amount of effort to bypass the 10as, it's easier to invest in a nanocom. Beside you can add central locking once you can program the 10as. So no reason to get rid of that.

Is it hunting for 740rpm, meaning it is idling between 720 and 760? Or is it looking even worse?
If you steady the throttle at 900rpm does this go away?
Is the ecu tuned?

I also notice that the way the "torque curve" in the tune of the engine affects this.

Signifies your battery or grounding has issues. |
