Back to the top - any update on VDO odometers? I just had mine apart for a gear replacement (brought to you by garagistic) and wish I had seen this thread earlier. Is the VDO procedure much different?

[RagtopE30]

No I havent messed with the SI board

great write up. i currently have 3 mileage numbers to track (the odo, the actual chassis mileage, and the motor mileage) and this will make my life easier by knocking it down to two.

It's not a crime if you aren't defrauding someone. Jeeze...do you also not tear the tags off the mattress?

I can tear those tags off legally?

Great. Now there will be a shitload of low mileage E30's for sale now.

Of course, Barry! BTW, I have a '92 M-Tech convertible for sale with only 15 original miles for sale...$45,000 obo....

Great. Now there will be a shitload of low mileage E30's for sale now. Good info here for those who want to update to their actual mileage on engine or chassis or whatever.

Nice write up! I wish this was around when I swapped out speedometers about 8 months ago. I had to match mileage (in this case kilometers) and I just kinda forced the numbers past the "keepers" to make the adjustment.

Ha, I didn't think anyone else was doing this method. When changing out gears for people I update the odo to near-actual reading. Crime?
