Is there any way via OBDII to recalibrate the gear indicator sensors?
You need to change the Gear determination tables. Only possible if you are tuned (OpenFlash or ECUtek).
In RomRaider you can find those tables in the "Miscellaneous - Thresholds" folder (probably it's going to have a similar name in ECUtek).
Then change the tables accordingly.
I think you can use the values of a 2017 model since those use an 4.3 FD.


Th above example is for a 4.556 Final Drive.
