Having worked in an auto repair shop for many years, when Volkswagen Bora owners ask about adjusting the odometer, I make it clear: arbitrarily altering the odometer is illegal, so don’t even think about it. The Bora’s odometer is electronic and digital, and normally cannot be manually adjusted. If calibration is truly needed—such as after replacing the instrument cluster or for repairs—it requires professional diagnostic tools and must be performed by an authorized service center. Otherwise, tampering is illegal, subject to fines, and can compromise the vehicle’s history, leading to safety risks. I recommend having technicians check the odometer reading and related circuits during regular maintenance to ensure accurate recording of the actual mileage. After all, integrity comes first. The odometer helps you track maintenance schedules, like knowing when to change the oil—don’t cut corners just to sell the car. Safe driving and lawful maintenance are what truly matter. If issues arise, always turn to an official 4S dealership for solutions.
