Speedometer reads high

I've had my X1 about a month now and I've been suspecting that it reads high. i commute on a freeway and the speed readings seem significantly higher than in my two previous cars (a Prius and an A3). Since I doubt that everyone else started driving faster, I suspected the speedometer on the X1.

I did a test with my Garmin GPS. With my other cars, the Garmin speed matched the car's speedometer within 1 mph. I was able to find a stretch of road where I could keep a nice steady 70 mph on the X1's speedometer. The Garmin read 66 mph.

Anyone else have this problem? Can a dealer confirm this problem and/or can they fix it?

Thanks,

Cliff
