Hi guys, I’m after information about the mileage reading alongside the spanner symbol that appears on the instrument cluster central display when ignition is switched on please.
I believe mine was reset between services as the reading currently shows just over 12000 miles but according to the service history data that seems odd, it was serviced about 5000 miles ago, before I bought it.
Does the figure count down from reset or count up as it’s driven?
By that I mean if the service interval is 12500 does it revert to that on reset and decrease inline with miles driven?
Or is it the opposite way around, resets to 0 and counts miles driven since the last service?
There is something odd about mine so I have one more question relating to this should the first version (count down from 12500 after reset) be the right one.
Can the reset figure of 12500 be manipulated?
According to figures in the advertisement for the car my service timer was reset exactly 100 miles before they offered it for sale.
So, just to be clear on the last question can you reset the timer to 12400 instead of 12500?
Thanks guys.
