What
is digital mileage correction?
Digital Mileage or mileage adjustment
correction becomes necessary when the mileage on the electronic
display differs from the value which you believe to be
correct. This is where a correction service can help you in
returning the displayed value back to its original value.
Why do I need this service?
There are many reasons why you might
mileage correction. Many dashboards develop electronic faults that
cause the mileage to jump or change to an invalid reading. Motors
and gauges also fail in this instance you might purchase either a
new or second hand instrument cluster as this is often more
cost effective. New dashboards have 0 miles on it. If
it's a second hand one it could well have 100,000 miles on it or
some other value from the donor car. Naturally you want it to show
the correct mileage and that's where we can help, by electronically
placing the correct mileage information onto the dashboard.
Is it legal?
If you need to change the mileage for any
of the reasons above this is perfectly legal. It is however, illegal
if you knowingly sell the vehicle without informing the buyer of the
true mileage. Speedofixer is only providing a correction service for
reasons similar to those stated above. You must inform a buyer of
the new mileage if you believe it to be incorrect. By using our
service you agree to this. Please read the legalities section - click

Why is our service better than others?
For most cars we can interface into the
car's diagnostic port which interfaces with our programming machine.
Where possible we do not have to remove the dashboard although this
may be necessary for some models and ALL Japanese cars. Speedofixer
use the latest hand held equipment specifically designed for
this purpose, this provides a much more stable platform for
performing this operation. It is known that there is a greater
risks of a chip developing a fault where people are using laptops to
reprogram mileages. This is due to differing processor speed in the
laptop being used and test environments. We
will arrive in a kitted out van or vehicle with all the necessary
tools including power supplies where necessary.
