660,000 Miles In A Fortnight

[Nick W858]

Well my LS went in to get the rust on the wheel arches sorted - it was away for two weeks and it looks brilliant. Mileage was 242k when it went in, was 212k when I got it back and this morning was showing 902k!

No idea what has gone on but looks like all the data from the odometer is totally knackered and given the true mileage is massive, I can't really see the point in fixing - anyone got any ideas what might have caused it?

Thanks

Nick

Wardrivers with a new gismo? While waiting to crack a wifi code, why not destroy the value of the car on the drive with a few button pushes?

Guaranteed useful info; or would have been fifty years ago:

Back in my telecomm days, many of us worked in emerging African countries to assist in their rapid transformation to the modern world of top decision making by egos in important looking uniforms.

My boss had a Land Rover whilst in Kenya. One day the speedo failed, so the main dealer was asked to fit a new one & advance the new speedo to the old one's mileage reading.

(I think you all know what is coming?) - When he went to collect, the car was on the wheel free, engine racing, back wheels spinning. The new speedo had only got to 12 miles, with another 40,000 odd to go.
