Hey everyone
Just a quick question...
When i bought my car a few months back the rev needle didnt work so i decided to buy replacement clocks off ebay and they worked a treat They are perfect
Whats concerning me however is the clocks read a different total mileage, so when i go for an MOT will this fail? If this fails an MOT i would like to correct the mileage, i could always just take them the old clocks as i still have them but its like hassle plugging them in, telling them ive done a few more thousand miles on the new clocks....you see my point
So yes basicly: will my car fail an mot because the mileage has basicly been halved, is there a way to change the mileage back without spending lots of money at a dealer?
Thanks for any contrubutions

As stated above, it won't fail the mot. But if your worried about the mileage not tallying, have it 'corrected'.
