According to statistics, about 50% of cars sold in the secondary market mileage does not correspond to the real one. The speedometer data is simply twisted. And it does not even stop the fact that the speedometers have become electronic and any interference with their readings can negatively affect the entire information system of the car.
Instructions
Step 1
If you suspect that the mileage data on the dashboard of the car does not correspond to the real ones, pay attention to the position of the numbers. They should be level and in a straight line, not jumping up and down. This is true if the speedometer is mechanical.
Step 2
Pay attention to the device when driving. If the numbers of the speedometer are twisted unevenly, then this is also a sign of an unrealistic run of the car.
Step 3
Look at the steering wheel. Based on practice, the leather steering wheel has scuffs after about 130,000 kilometers, the plastic one starts to wear out a little earlier. So, if you are shown a car with only 80,000 kilometers on the speedometer, and the steering wheel is all worn, then we can safely assume that the speedometer data was twisted.
Step 4
Also, pay attention to the pedal pads, which tend to wear off at high mileage too, and the longer the mileage, the more they are worn out.
