Open up the dash and unplug the odometer...just remember to plug it back in...oh yeah, you'll won't have a speedo anymore either....but that is the price you pay.

LOL, you guys crack me up. I wonder if the computer keeps a record though? These days the computer knows like everything.

Thanks, but miles comes from the computer, odometer is only displaying numbers but this data taken from computer, it must be stoped on computer somewhow.

Put it up on jacks and put it in reverse with a brick on the gas pedal. Just like in the movie Ferris Buellers Day Off (SP.

Really though..... I have no idea.

Either way, you're going to pay. You'll pay for the extra mileage at lease end, and when they find out you tampered with the odo., you'll pay for a lawyer, court fee's, a fine and potential jail time for tampering with the device.

don't think it's worth it, IMO.

Sounds like cheating to me. Take your lumps and do it different next time. How would you feel to learn you bought a used vehicle with who knows how many miles on it? I'd want to introduce the previous owner to Guido the Butcher. Consult your Kharma.

Just do like the used car dealers...get a low mileage computer from a wrecked CL and save it till you are ready to turn your car in. Not that doing so would be legal\ethical.
