    There should be no difference. The speedo counts the number of times the wheels turn and doesn't care about the transmission type. Your speedo will be out of calibration if tires of a different diameter than the norm are used.

    Thank you for the replies sirs. Btw, where do this cables/wirings of speedo attached? Nalilito kasi ako sa tinatawag nilang gearbox ba yun? May problema po kasi yung speedo namin, di pumapalo yung needle niya, ok naman speed sensor, sa connection sa dashboard na po kaya yung problema nito?

    There is a cable that runs from your speedo to a gear inside the gearbox/transmission. Baka putol na.

    Mga sir, mabalik lang po sa topic, bakit po pareho lang ang readings ng speedo nila kahit sa magkaibang transmission? any articles/links po na nagpapatunay dito? Wala kasi ako mahanap po. Thankyou po

Is there any difference in speedometer reading if you are automatic or manual
