    odometer reset ITSELF??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey all,
    I am stumped, really stumped.

    So last week I replaced the power steering pump in my wife's A6 and the mileage was at 115,xxx roughly. Last night I was looking at her cluster and thinking something was really weird. I was right her odometer now reads 81,xxx. How does this happen and why? If anyone has any insight or can point me in a right direction that would be wonderful. thanks guys

    The a6 is going through a mid-life crisis and decided it wanted to feel younger?
