Having converted my Vr ute to a level 3 dash cluster I wanted the odometer reset to match my original speedo, I contacted my local Holden dealer who assured me it would take about an hour and would cost about $80. After waiting 3 weeks for a booking and driving 3/4 of an hour I took the ute to them to have it done, the service technician then sat down with the manuals to teach himself how to do it! In the end they couldn't change the odometer so it was all a waste of time. They then told me that some Holden dealer had abused the resetting feature and was rewinding his showroom cars on a weekly basis and so it was disabled to all the dealers, but they claim didn't know until they tried to do it on my car, no help to me though.
So with the help of the yellow pages I tracked down Premier Instruments in 7 Badham St Dickson Canberra ACT 2602 ph 02 62491409 and with ringing them was told it would take 15 minutes but the cluster would have to be out of the car.
So I did the 1 1/2 hour drive to Canberra yesterday after I had removed the cluster and to my pleasant surprise it was done in 15 minutes and only charged $44. If you want a cluster done by them and it means you are resetting the odometer to a lower reading you will have to supply proof of the reading, your last pink slip RWC or copy of the blue slip in my case from doing my engine transplant otherwise it's illegal and they may not do it for you.
