Ok. NM the OD is a trip # not a total mileage count. At first it looked like this fellow maxed out his speed with almost no breakin.

That's German for ANTENNA. Did you change your display language too?

Also it looks like your torque converter may be slipping or unlocked because you shouldn't get 171mph at at 5500rpm in 7th. That should be in 6th.

At his current RPM in 7th he should be going 290km/h.

Actually after doing the math I think it's ok...since 5km/h is a tiny margin of error for the tach/speedo. So disregard my comment about the TCC.
