Mileage adjustment

[Themanfromdown]

Hi all new on here though read it for a few help topics many a time but this is not covered...Note before as it seems in other threads like this folks get carried away saying its illegal and so on I have a very genuine rreason for my request to adjust the displayed mileage... So genuine and thinking others do it for none genuine reasons I am wondering if I should declare the rreason as it may be an excuse others are not aware of to adjust request a mieage adjust...for non legall reasons...
Anyway does anyone know if this can be done easily say using ebay purchased or internet available items...its already cost me a bit to sort the problem prior to this bit and dont fancy paying a UK volvo dealer silly money to do it ...I will have a seconhand instrument cluster to fit.. wasnt buying a new one and I am told it will come with with whatever miles are on it which undoubtedly of course wont show the same as the car its being fitted to has done ...

The cars mileage is stored on two separate places , dash display & the main control module..

From what I've read it is not as task for the DIY'r

However, it is very doable to have an instrument cluster repaired, so as to keep displaying the original miles.

"Original" to the cluster or "original" to the recipient vehicle??

Thanks for your replies guys I had heard its stored two places which is great but also a problem as well then Harveys you seem to know your stuff Does the module record in both Km as well as Miles eg is it convertable I sadly cant have the instrument cluster repaired or I would have done. there is actualy nothing wrong with my original instrument cluster except it cant be used in the UK so I am left buying a secondhand one that can be used in UK and altering the mileage I guess but the module will show up I guess in KMs unless that can be changed conerted to miles maybe it has to be a dealer job
