This is an illegal operation that will get you nothing but trouble. Don't even think about doing this. If you get caught, which you will, you will pay dearly.

And more and more vehicles are storing information in the vehicle computer which makes odometer fraud much more difficult to perform and easier to detect.

Most criminals don't think about the fact that when the car goes for emissions testing or to a dealer for repair, the mileage is stored in their computers. Go to a Honda dealer, give them your VIN, and you can get a printout of everything Honda ever did to the car...same thing with state emissions testing...the services like CARFAX pull this data to spot odometer fraud.

With the car key on ACC, put your odometer on the mileage setting (not 'trip') then turn the key off - then, while holding down the button that switches from odo and trip, turn the key back on to ACC - you will notice the maintenance light blink and then go out. The vehicle computer automatically resets the mileage interval until it goes on again.
