Checking for clocking ?
« on: March 17, 2012, 09:20:39 am »
There was a millage change thread about but now I can't find it.  What was the outcome on if you can check for it or not? Mine is a 08 DSG. Can a dealer pull the DSG miles from the DSG ECU ?  Got mine just before it's first MOT and the last service doesn't have a millage with it and that didn't seem a problem at the time but now it kind of rings the alarm bells.   A VW service was done at 26,000 a year ago and it's on 45,000 now so in theory the owner that year shouldn't have been able to do too much stellar millage (I hope).

Can VCDs check ?

Have you had a look on the direct.gov website? Might be on there.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Only if the ECU supports it.
