    A question came in this morning on this video;
    Question: Can this be done on any car? Or does it depend what tool was used to do the mileage clocking??
    Answer: Yes it depends what tool was used to clock it and if the mileage is stored in other locations.
    My guess is the clocker used a cheap mileage tool that only corrected the BCM/Dash but didn't have a option for the engine. So I read the mileage for the PCM (Engine ECU)

    154410 Miles = 248498 km (maybe your gauges is reading wrong)
    Drive it 100miles on the guage and see if the scan guage goes up by approx 160.

    Is this reader or the MK808 capable of reading mileage from the ECU on Hondas? Hondas have been particularly difficult to get data from. I also heard that mileage is stored in the cluster only, but I assume it should also be stored in some ECU. Any insight into how to find it would be greatly appreciated thank you.

    • @lotsoftorque3632
      @lotsoftorque3632 Год назад

      As he stated in a previous comment, it can be checked for the actual milage that the ecu has stored. So if someone changed the milage on the cluster, you could catch it with this scan tool. However, some of the more advanced scammers will go ahead and buy a really sophisticated milage corrector. And those tools may also have the ability to change the milage on the ecu. So it depends what milage corrector was used. My biggest concerns with your 4runner would be #1 the rust on the underbody (Toyotas rust very very quickly) and #2 would be the head gasket. All those Toyota engines will have headgasket problems at some point.

      It is possible to reflash the EEPROM with a lower mileage and align the data with other modules that record it in the vehicle. Many record the mileage of the last ODO change. This can be thwarted by changing to 0.0 miles before changing again to the desired mileage... but even then EEPROM keeps count each time a change is made to the odometer, so even the most high tech devices are not undetectable but can pass a simple inspection if done correctly.

    One guy I spoke to said that you can pay around 100 quid or so to a shop that offers 'mileage correction'. He said that its not at all tracrable if you do it before an MOT?
    Like, he meant, all the places that the real mileage is stored, can be clocked? I always though that these guys were changing the mileage on the odometer and the dash chip, or do they change it on the ECU aswell? I'm planning to buy a 4-5 year old car Lexus and now I am scared and paranoid I might get a clocked car, especially because it'll be a hybrid.
