My high mileage cavy
Saturday, October 31, 2009 3:56 PM
So I bought the car with 7,xxx miles on it. It is a R-title and that didn't bother me because I knew buying it I would run it into the ground as my DD. I've had the car about 3 yrs now and it was around 41,xxx miles last time I looked. I keep it on the trip to see how many miles I get out of a tank. So last night I come out and get in and the total odometer flashed as I started it. The number was 419,297

Yeah, but i bet a lot of stuffs been replaced on his car though. I doubt he would have any original parts left with that kind of mileage.

Time to confess...

I must have some type of electrical issue. It all started awhile back when I lost my low beam and daytime driving light on my passenger side. The high beam works though. I believe that and this are related. I'm going to try to find someone to look at it, I was told it was a bad ground.

I didn't drive that many miles...the car is original.

I thought I had a lot on my 01 Z at 255,000 + miles when I traded in on my 03 LS sport with only 53,000 on it (yeah 200 thousand less miles!)

Unhook your battery for a few minutes, See if the odometer resets itself to the proper mileage.
I know Dodge has a whole instrument cluster reset procedure for when they go "screwy" Not sure if GM has similar.

I will try it if I remember but I don't think it will help since that memory is stored in the car ECM. I'm currently at 420,xxx
