No issue with the dash except incorrect mileage on the odometer... my car has somewhere around 33k, my dash has maybe 6k. I had the dealer do the coding/adaptations. When I picked the car up everything
seemed to be in order. When the cruise control system is on (but not active) the set speed takes the place of the odometer. Sooooo... I didn't see that the odometer had not been set to match my car's current mileage
. I had nearly a full tank which lasts a good while in the TDI. When I eventually need to fill up I checked my odometer to do mpg calculations since the trip meter was reset (expected) when the dash was changed. What the??? My odometer shows ~400 miles. Stupid dealer didn't go through the full process which would have included setting my odometer.
Dash is no longer "new" after something around 60 miles (probably 100km) and the odometer can no longer be changed. I was well past that when I went to fill up. I complain to my dealer who gives some crap about how I didn't specifically ask them to set the odometer... garbage. I argue for a bit, get nowhere. In any case, my odometer doesn't match. I don't see it unless I turn cruise control off but it irks me, almost as much as it irks me that a new dash is going to cost (another) $900
if prices are still the same, haven't looked in a while.
But if anyone around these parts doesn't mind an odometer mismatch I would certainly let this one go for cheap.
@Acadia18 has right of first refusal, haha. I've only had the car at a shop a few times since this
incident. I always show them my invoice from the dealer for the AID "programming" which has the mileage at that time and beg them to be sure to add that to what my dash shows. That keeps my maintenance receipts in-order and should prevent an issue if they report to CarFax. No issues thus far but inconvenient.
