and when i put it in, it said 300 k

can the ecu play around with the odo?

a guy that worked at my uncles car yard started to use those "magic" boxes to wind back the odometeres on the cars in the yard.. unfortunately he fled the state and my uncle was there to cop the fine of $26,000 and a further $15,000 per car with a total of 16 cars.. he also lost his traders lisence.. to turn back an odometre without getting fined i think u need a stat dec from the cops stating the original km's so b careful what you say dr bob haha
