I posted this on another web forum, but have not been getting any good info. I have a CARFAX mileage discrepancy on a 2002 996 that I purchased earlier this year. HOWEVER, the mileage is almost exactly 100,000 miles different between the CarFax report and the actual odometer reading. The original owner said the car had about 158K miles on it, when the dealer bought it (purportedly due to a blown headgasket). The car went to auction and bounced around auction companies for about 8 months, according to the CarFax. About 2 months before I bought the car, CarFax report shows that the mileage magically changed to 62,xxx miles (not 162,xxx). Because this odometer reading would be believable if it were 162,xxx, I now am thinking that the light behind the "1" in 162,xxx might have burned out or be otherwise non-functioning whereby the "1" isn't working. Is it possible for just one number on the odometer to be burned out, and not the entire set of mileage numbers? I think 2002 used LEDs, right? Is there a way to check if this is a lighting problem? Is there a way to DIY fix it, with some electrical soldering skills? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. -
I'm a new owner and seem to be going through the initiation rites (see "Nuisance Alarms"). When I bought the car it had working LED displays under the speedo, tach and fuel/ temp gauges. After disconnecting the battery to stop the alarms and later back feeding through the lighter socket to open the hood, the display under the speedo is blank but the one under the tach works (for speed only) and the clock works. I hope this one is just a matter of me not knowing how to reset due to not having the correct owners manual. Is there a trick or do I have a real problem? Ross
