    Speedometer is reading incorrectly, does not match gps reported speed or the play place officers speed when he clocked me going 13 miles an hour over the speed my adaptive cruise was set at. Cruise control was set at 76 miles an hour and my phone was not on the gas, the gps on my map application showed i was going 87 miles an hour and that is the speed the police officer noted as well.

    Today as i was driving on perry rd about to turn onto fm 1960 rd e. When i started to accelerate to turn, my transmission down shifted while i'm driving at about 15 miles an hour instead of going up and jerked my car pretty good. I let go of the gas pedal for a second, then tried again slowly. The car started to jerk as if it was struggling to accelerate forward. It did after about 10 seconds. Then the speedometer…

    My car at times will give a hard start. Turning, but not fully turning over or gives off a sound that i can only describe as an elephant trumpeting. When it does start at times it will shut completely off just as fast. It hesitates to pick up adequate speed and will stumble or jerk, and when put in reverse it will completely stall out. I've had a new battery installed, and the spark plugs and boots have been…
