#5: Re: mileage problem Author: -RAJ-, Location: COVPosted: Fri Apr 22, 2011 3:52 pm ---- its abit stupid that the 206 stores it in the speedo, you could easly lower the milage of a car by just swapping over the speedo's

#11: Re: mileage problem Author: Norvvv, Location: WiltshirePosted: Fri Apr 22, 2011 5:21 pm ---- You need a brand new one that's set to 0 otherwise it adds up your own mileage to the second hand one you bought from te scrappy I think
#12: Re: mileage problem Author: Barking, Location: sarcasm-in-shedloadsPosted: Sat Apr 23, 2011 12:32 am ---- if the mileage is stored on the dials, just buy another set of dials with 88000 miles on or less.
surely that would fix it?
#13: Re: mileage problem Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Sat Apr 23, 2011 3:43 am ---- Non plexed 206 like the OP's will ONLY display what is stored in the instrument cluster memory.
Peugeot main dealers DO NOT have the equipment to correct mileage readings.
Find a mileage correction company & get them to adjust it.

so on my 2006 (plexed), if i were to buy a set of lockwood dials already in a cluster taken from a 2005 (also plexed), i can just plug the lockwood cluster into mine and it will show the correct mileage?

You need to check first what the mileage is on the replacement cluster!
You need a replacement set of dials with a LOWER mileage!
Multiplexed & non plexed 206's work totally different on diaplaying mileage
