My 2004 Accord is dead on. I've tested it several times and at various
speeds using a handheld GPS. I've also tested it against the traffic
signboards that tell you your speed as you approach it. Under all
curcumstances, the readings match up. I can't say the same for the three
Civics I owned previously.

Re: Odometer Class Action Suit?
Yes California does! Take a look at those little white rectangular
paddles along to side of the road. The Large numbers on them are
post-miles. Also at certain markers that end in ##.00 there will be a
large white mark in the middle of the sideline stripe. These may be 5
miles apart or less. This is so that the CHP can clock your speed from
the air.

paddles along to side of the road. The Large numbers on them are
post-miles. Also at certain markers that end in ##.00 there will be a
large white mark in the middle of the sideline stripe. These may be 5
miles apart or less. This is so that the CHP can clock your speed from
the air.

Re: Odometer Class Action Suit?
Yes California does! Take a look at those little white rectangular
paddles along to side of the road. The Large numbers on them are
post-miles. Also at certain markers that end in ##.00 there will be a
large white mark in the middle of the sideline stripe. These may be 5
miles apart or less. This is so that the CHP can clock your speed from
the air.
