Mileage Correction

[Gadgetman]

Hi Guys, I have a 1996 1.9 TDLX car and i recently had problems with the clocks just sticking at 40 mph no matter what speed i was doing and also the rev counter sticking at 2K i bought some more clocks off ebay that seem to be working fine but they are 260K and i need the mileage correcting to the original clocks, can anyone help please?? I am located in the North east but would also be willing to post the clocks as i have access to my wife's car for work!

Cheers

Stu

is the 260 the two lots of miles added together?

Unfortunately not!! I have 2 choices to try and fix the clocks that are not working or correct the ones that have mega miles!!

The clocks with the 260K are out of the car as i am not using it atm due to this problem so any help would be much appreciated.... Cheers!

As far as I'm aware, there's no way of correcting the mileage, at least for a DIYer. A dealer might be able to do it though, although they may only be able to do it with a brand new cluster

That only occurs on D9s

There used to be mileage correction companies about (look in the Autotrader adds, in the paper version) only this time you'd actually have a kinda genuine reason to change the mileage unlike some of their 'customers'

I think it costs about £60.00 to 80.00 ?
