Okay, last time I’m going to address this and I guess I have to make it a pinned comment for the people who don’t like to read previous comments. THIS IS ONLY LEGAL IF YOUR MILES ARE ALREADY EXEMPT ON YOUR TITLE!! What I am doing is the video is legal because my title I received already had messed up miles from previous owners that could not be verified. If you do this without exempt miles listed on the title, with the sole intentions of maliciously screwing someone over and not disclosing the rolled miles, you are breaking the law. Thank you.
I spent hours trying to find info on changing an odometer and only found stories about criminal behavior. I'm just trying to replace my speedo! Thank you.
I just bought a 1990 lexus ls400 so the miles are also exempt from the title. The previous owner had changed the original cluster which has 132k miles (original mileage) because the lights etc.. weren't working the new cluster reads 115k. I'm in Ny, when I get the car inspected is it still going to be an issue? Will they mark my title as unknown mileage?
Soo if I am purchasing a vehicle where the title has 120k (2020) but the odometer is not working and has 200 +. K miles one it (2023), should I suspect odometer meddling or just faulty parts/speed sensor? Help! Thanks!
I need this. Ain't a scammer. Bought my car with a bad milage meter due to having oversized wheels. Bought it with 130 thousand but it says 170 thousand .its way off was only driven 5000 kays
Not sure if you’re trying to say I was being shady doing this but I definitely have written multiple times how your title needs to reflect mileage as being “exempt.” My sole purpose was to track miles on the new engine swap and my title already had “Exempt” from the previous owner. That’s cool though, being ignorant is definitely a cool trait to have.
I did this on my 91’ MR2. Should be the same process for yours I believe. Just make sure to make note of it at the tag office so nobody gets screwed if you sell it legally.
So what happens if you sell your car in the future? Will the title say exempt still? Or do you have to put the mileage on the odometer? I mever heard of this before but sounds like a good idea to go back to zero if i were to swap a engine to keep track of mileages of the new engine.
I’m not sure what the process is since I bought the car with the miles already exempt. After taking a look though I found that they need to be vehicles that are ten years old. I’m sure you could probably talk to the dmv though and they would be more useful than me. Thanks for the comment though! Glad to help!
Again.., if the title says exempt, you can do this in order to do things like tracking miles on a new engine. Usually safe to always run a vin number anyway to look up info
