Does anyone know what color it is and where i can find it?   Richard Dekkard (Richard_dekkard) Member Username: Richard_dekkard Post Number: 101 Registered: 04-2003 Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2003 - 11:26 pm:    try the yahoo tdi list for this one.. http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Tdi/   Perrone Ford (Perroneford) Member Username: Perroneford Post Number: 182 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 12:37 am:    This makes no sense. GPS units are perfectly capable of calculating absolute speed from triangulation of their satellite signal. Why would it want to use a mis-calibrated speed sensor wire? -P   Marco de Jonge (Koos) New Member Username: Koos Post Number: 2 Registered: 07-2003 Posted on Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 04:31 am:    I guess they want to use it for extra accuracy. I'll check out the Yahoo list. Thanks!
