Title: VDO mileage alteration.
Post by: DarnPB on 13 June 2009, 16:31

The time has come to start the process of importing the shed. I have a new instrument cluster with 160mph, instead of 260kph. But the miles on the MPH is 136000 miles, whereas the KPH one shows 141002 kms. I want to wind the miles back to 87979 miles to indicate the actual miles my car has done. I have the cluster apart and have been able to wind back 2000 miles, but with another 49000 more to wind back, it going to take a while. Any ideas anyone?? I cannot get the facia off wothout removing the pointer, and I don't want to remove the pointer if I can help it unless someone can give me a 'pointer' (I'll get my coat) in the right direction.
HELP!!!
