Hey man. The mileage is actually stored in each gauge cluster. I believe the gauge cluster calculates mileage based on RPM and vehicle speed.

What do you mean by "throw mileage on the car"????

Yup, your mileage would show 0 miles. Although with your beat up ride no one would believe you had 30k miles on it......

Well unfortunately, for those of us who get their oil changed at the dealership , dont forget that they do keep a record of your mileage in the system each time you get your oil changed. So even if you do N!GG@ rig your mileage, the truth will always be at the dealership....now if you can change the numbers in the corporate system...Then you will have succeeded.
