Odometer Question I've searched and haven't quite got a distinct answer, and I'm not sure where this goes, but I've got a few questions about odometer readings. My del Sol is from the US, and the odometer is in miles (about 209,xxx at the time) When I Air Cared it months ago, I noticed that the technicians recorded my odometer readings incorrectly, putting it as 209,xxx KMs, when it should really be around 349,xxx kms. Would this be a problem if I were ever to send my VIN out to CARFAX and the readings looked all screwy? I'm currently selling my car, and I don't want any future hindrances because of the incorrect odometer recordings by Air Care, or any other place. Also, to any other RS members that know, I've got a Canadian cluster, but I need to push the odometer readings forward. Where can I do this? Thanks! |
the aircare website says "odo readings are taken by workers, and cannot be guaranteed for accuracy", so ur fine. |
^ Link? Also, anybody have an answer to my second question? |
http://www.aircare.ca/inspinfo-get-results.php enter your vin, and at the bottom read the fine print. its also illegal to tamper with the odo, no matter what. |
I thought you're allowed to change you're odo or get it rolled forward/back for you're own purposes (ex. Engine swap or cluster broke). You just can't rollback and not state that it was changed to the next buyer hence committing fraud. |
Where can I get it rolled forward? I'm afraid to open it up and do it myself (mainly because I won't know what I'm doing.) |
You could do it Ferris Bueller style... |

no one will do this for you, your gonna have to do it yourself, there are lots of guides, google. |
I can open it up and roll it forward |
You're better off just leaving it, and explaining it to prospective buyers that Aircare hires morons and to ignore the aircare number. |
I agree. It would be much better just to record it and explain. I think I would trust that more than some guy with a tampered odometer trying to tell me that everything was really OK. |
