Gt tdi clock change, what about the miles?
« on: September 21, 2012, 01:40:38 pm »
Hi I'm new here, been floating around here for awhile but this is my first post, if I changed the clocks does the miles get saved onto the car or clocks? Thanks james

The mileage on the new clocks would need to be changed, it's not saved to the car in that way but I believe the ECU does record the miles, just not for display.

When Kalu did mine I believe the donor clocks were reset then all the info from my original clocks was transferred. This allowed the current vehicle mileage to be entered.
