I’m sure if anything in the power train was replaced would void your free honda eligibility.

Volvo of north america will give you a brand new car if your car has gone a million miles and still has the original block and head, with all other parts being oem. (i doubt they void deal for a fram oil filter but you get the point). It all started with a volvo p1800 which is in the record book for having the highest miles. Volvo gave him a new car at 1 mil which caught other companys attention. Most manufatures now have rewards towards a new vehicle on super high mile cars. ex. bmw will give a cash allowance towards the purchase of a new vehicle if your bmw has over 400k or so im told.

if it could be done id be the guy handing you the drill to turn the clock… although its all computerised and even if that were able to be hacked they may get curious when your inspection records jump 800k in one year

It’s really simple, put your car up on jackstands, take the wheels off, put it in 5th/6th gear, set cruise at high rpm, add gas and change oil as necessary. With no load, and with proper maintanance you’ll be there in no time.

Vlad as stupid as you would like to think the public may be, if you crx had 100k inspected in 05’ then 120k in 06’ when you come in for inspection in 07’ and your speedo reads 999,999 a red flag will go up and your car will be marked in dmv as tmu (true milage unknown)
