Ian Mc Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I have a 2008 2.0tdi that has lost 7000 miles between services and all readings appear correct. I have had the car from new. Can anyone explain how the odometer readings appear to have gone Backwards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 How odd. Has the car had any work on the instrument cluster at all? Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mc Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 No nothing. Had a new key programmed that’s all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 How very strange. I've never come across that before. Is it worth speaking to the garage that always looks after it to see if they can throw any light on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mc Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 Yes I did and we checked all service and MOT and they have no idea. It’s like the odometer has not moved from 179,999 to 180,000 but instead gone to 170,000 as that would better tally with current readings. Other than that it’s a complete mystery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Well I'm stumped. You could have a diagnostic check carried out but that is a stab in the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mc Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 Me too. Due to its age I don’t think I will bother but it’s just really strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I suspect you're in a similar boat to me. As in you'll keep your Audi untill it dies. In which case it doesn't matter as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mc Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Correct. It costs little to maintain and still looks really good so will run it for longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 My dad bought my a6 new and I then inherited it when he got company cars. Won't part with it 🙂 does need a cambelt and water pump now though so currently off the road. But hoping to be back on the road shortly so I can do the north coast 500 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
