mileage adjustment ibiza

[danielrobertc12]

recently had to buy some clocks for my ibiza x reg and obviously the mileage now dosnt match up with the old clocks and also the service history ,is there any way i can have it adjusted apart from these auto electicians who want nearly £60 to adjust them thanks

no what ibiza is it???

its a ibiza cupra 2ovt

 

[goble]

yes only a dealer can do

Is it true that they can only increase the miles and not decrease them?

 

[goble]

you can enter a mileage once and once only but what you enter in wil be kms
so you need to get a miles to kms conversion to get it correct

I believe its illegal to clock the odometer backwards. Well i think its illegal to clock the car with intent to selling or profetting from it.

 

[danielrobertc12]

im aware of that but if yoiu read my post youll see why

 

[m0rk]

it's not illegal at all, there are justifiable reasons behind it

You have got it all wrong.
There is no criminal offence in changing the mileage on any vehicle.
Just look in the Autotrader, people advertise this service totally legally.
It becomes illegal when the mileage is changed for the purpose of increasing the value of a car, or masking the cars real history.
This is called Fraud, and thats the offence.
