2014 Countryman obometer changed
Anyone ever experienced your odometer drastically changing value? My Countryman was around 48K and today shows 22K. Thoughts?

Never saw that before, only when people switch factory main gauges/speedo swaps from another wrecked car they valve goes up not down. Id you change it from KIlliomters to Miles?

KM to Miles conversion is a great idea but the math doesn't work.

Some kind of electrical or software glitch.

Yep, math-wise. But I dont know if those were exact numbers. I bet somethings up with the electrical, never seen milage go down.

Pre-computer days, mileage went down at used car dealers all the time.

I looked at one car with less miles than the last oil change sticker on the door frame, oops.
