    Check your tyres. You got really big ones on I'm guessing?

    Check your tyres ... are they spinning and emitting smoke ? :br:

    EDIT: Seriously probably a speed sensor in the gearbox mismatched with diff ratio (do you have a TT ?)

    The 4.083 NA to 3.692 TT diff ratio would give about that effect.

    EDIT 2: Actually that would only account for about 10%

    What size rear tyres do you have ?

    Could be wrong speed sensor perhaps (aka N/A one vs TT one), if that's even possible.
    Is your cluster OEM?
    if aftermarket faces are installed there could be a resistance value mismatch on the circuit board.
