View Full Version : Mileage
Ok I know this sounds a bit dodgy, but it's not!!
Can anyone tell me how to change the mileage of my GTE clocks? Bought some off ebay a while back and hoping to fit them next weekend, but I'd like to have the mileage read right!
I think i need to move the mileage forward rather than backwards...

I took my sr dash apart to do the same i took all the speedo to peices there's about 7 little blue thing's on a little mettal rod holding them on i slid the rod out and the numbers are free to move :lol: t hat was just my dodgy way of doin it someone else ,ite have an easyer way :!:
from a legal point of view, I don't think that advice should be given on this subject. even though resetting a speedo is very easy if you take care.
am sure there was a post in general about clockin cars
its not actually illegal as long as u declair its been clocked when u come to sell it

take the dash apart and have a look inside. if you cant work out how to do it your a complete retard. it really is that easy
cant see the point to be honest - your modifying your car - if you change your clocks then its no longer accurate - and the kind of people that will buy it wont be interested in the mileage anyway.
Its like if you get a new engine or recondition your existing one...what do you do then? I mean you can hardly clock the car for a recon engine can you - how many miles do you knock off? 40K?
i've changed my clocks a few times and never bothered - I made a mental note when I did it 1st but then I changed the engine and lost track!
Why risk possibly damaging your cars clocks?
My next rebuild I dont even think I'm going to have the mileage on display

i'm having mine set to 000000 when the car is finished
its not actually illegal as long as u declair its been clocked when u come to sell it.
I wouldn't have thought i was doing anything wrong, if i'm making the clocks read the cars true mileage? I mean if i was knocking a few thousand off for dubious purposes then fair enough that's dodgy, but i just want it to show the correct mileage.
if you cant work out how to do it your a complete retard
Ahh... that's me then :lol:

perhaps its more illegal not to clock back to actual millage than it is to do it. if that makes sense.
