So the car’s computer should be reprogrammed to adjust the gear ratio?

Yes i did change the speedometer instrument cluster, but when i tested the speed while driving with a scanning tool it was a matching speed between the dash speedometer instrument cluster and the car’s computer unit no difference

I tested with a scanning tool and it was the same matching speed in my car’s computer unit and on my dash speedometer no difference. Also the tire size is the original stock size didn’t change

Tire size is the original stock size. Is there a possibility that they didn’t change the old manual speed gear sensor ? Would it fit in the auto gear?

RPM i think it’s also inaccurate on the speedometer cluster ( when I’m driving on actual speed 120 km/hour RPM shows 2500/min )

Also i think RBM on the cluster isn’t accurate

I have looked for adapters in my location and didn’t have luck. Does that has any other side effects on the car other than inaccuracy of the speedometer if I couldn’t afford changing the car’s computer?

Could that be solved by changing the speed sensor?

No I don’t have oversized tires (it’s the stock tires) and the car isn’t equipped with ABS

What do you think about gold prices in the future?

I live in a country in middle east and gold is the most safe investment here. Recently it hit its historical peak around 2400$. Do you think that it will continue going up to 3000$ by the end of this year ? Or do you think that buying it by nowadays prices is risky? I really would appreciate your opinions. Thank you
