What Causes Your Mileage to Become Inaccurate or Corrupted?
Corruption can happen as a result of the following issues:
The vehicle battery was discharged and then jump-startedDashboard incurs electrical faultsDashboard damage in a collision or through vandalism
If any of the above happens then the mileage displayed on your digital dash can be inaccurate or totally incorrect, a qualified expert should then therefore undertake digital mileage correction to remedy the problem.
What is digital mileage recalibration and digital mileage correction?
Most modern cars are fitted with electronic dashboards and digital odometers/speedometers to reduce manufacturing costs. However these digital mileage monitors can easily be corrupted (leading to low accuracy) by electrical pulses that are stored in the vehicle’s EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory). This can happen on any type of car, van or bike with a digital mileage display. If you have a newer Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Porsche, Ford, Peugeot or any other make you may have experienced this. This is when digital mileage correction can be the only answer to your problem.

Disclaimer
MCB offer their services for digital mileage correction with the intent that they are for legal purposes and requesting our service is confirmation that the customer acknowledges and confirms that this is the case.
Should the customer later sell his/her vehicle he/she confirms that the buyer will be informed of the true mileage of the vehicle if different to the odometer reading.
MCB's mileage adjustment & correction services comply fully with all laws regarding odometer correction and although it is not an offence in the UK to change the odometer on your personal vehicle or to correct a false/corrupt reading, it is an offence to sell a vehicle showing a lower or higher reading than true unless the buyer is informed of the true reading.
If the vehicle's mileage cannot be guaranteed you must display a disclaimer on the odometer the same size or larger than the odometer itself.
Remember - The onus is totally on the owner of the vehicle.
