vr6g 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Alright Guys, Was wondering is there any handy way of adjusting the mileage on a set of vr clocks early '96, obd 1, as when i did my engine transplant the clocks from the donor car were mangled and the new clocks i got had about 60000 more miles on them and i want to adjust them to the original engine mileage. Many Thanks Gareth Link to post Share on other sites

Samson 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 I wouldnt have thought so, I think you can if they are below a certain mileage but not 100% sorry Link to post Share on other sites
xyber 1 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 you may be able to at a VW main stealer, with all docs (MOT etc) proving the actually milage you need them adjusted to, if they can id imagine it would be a hefty sum!I always thought the milage was stored on the ecu or somewhere though and the clocks just displayed it ???

vr6g 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 no, it's all held in the memory of the clocks. well i'm a mechanic myself, have a friend in a VW garage and they wont do it. i have the function on my vag com software but anytime i try to change it, it wont let me. so was just wondering if anyone knew of anything?

kilokilla 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Well it is possible as far as im aware check out your local autotrader and generally there is some1 in them advertising mileage correction they should be able to sort you out.Carl. Link to post Share on other sites
jezmoz 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 this can be done by software by dodgy people haha but it's shady territory and not good for the second hand market!! Link to post Share on other sites
vr6g 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 ahhh dont worry, i'm definately not a dodgy type, and it'll not afect the second hand market, cause i love my vr and she'll NEVER be sold!!! oh and plus theres a genuine 60000 on the engine and nearly 130000 on the clocks......
