4.44 Swap done, now speed issue?
I just got my car back...outback 4.44 now in it. The thing is, my speedo seems to be quite a lot off..5mph at 40mph, and 10mph at 70mph!
Any idea why  I don't get it...

If so, then the THREE wire speedometer sensor is located on the front right side of the trans, just behind the bell housing. You have to sue the SVX three wire sensor. They can be a bugger to install. Is it all the way in? Do you have another SVX speed sensor to try? Tom I just Re-read your post. The speed sensor ONLY READS THE AXLE ROTATIONS! So the gear ratios have NOTHING to do with the MPH readings. If it is off now, it was either off before, went bad during the swap, or you never noticed it.

k
Is it possible that they left the outback speed sensor in, and that would make a difference? I didn't know it could even be used...the speedo does work, as does cruise etc and no cel on or anything.

Having the exact same issue, did you ever get this resolved?
Thanks!

Unfortunately...
No, I didn't. The speedo continues to work, but is consistantly off. I'm not sure what else to look at, so I guess I'll just get used to it
You've had the same issue after a 4.44 swap?
