How to Check the Total Mileage of a Car?
1 Answers
The total mileage of a car is usually displayed on the dashboard. To check other information such as average fuel consumption or remaining range, press the left button on the dashboard several times. To verify the actual mileage of a car, you can check the maintenance records at a 4S store, use an OBD computer to read the engine mileage, read the transmission mileage with an OBD computer, observe the wear on brake discs, tire wear, and interior wear, among other methods. If maintenance records are unavailable or the car hasn't been serviced at a 4S store, you can use an OBD diagnostic tool to read the car's data and check the engine and transmission mileage. This method is quite common. However, some car computers are highly restricted or require specialized OBD tools for reading, making it impossible to check the mileage with a standard OBD computer. In such cases, you can only rely on experience to estimate the mileage.
