Hidden menu > correction factor

What is the default value of correction factor, in the hidden menu?

Not sure exactly what you're asking here. The token to get into the menu is the sum of the last 5 digits of the VIN if I remember correctly. Someone posted a video of how to access it.

What does this correction factor affect? I've never tried to change it, so the default value should still be being used in our 2014 BEV. However, does this correction factor's value depend on the model, market, etc.?

Doesn't BMW apply a "correction factor" to the speedometer to make sure it reads higher than your actual speed (to ensure you don't get erroneous speeding tickets)? I assumed that's what this was though I've never entered that part of the service menu.

I played with it and I hope I let it at the default value I wanted to make sure
