Right, and you only have the first 100 miles in which you can do it without getting locked out. I don't know why some mechanics who clearly don't have the Tech 1 and properly programmed mass storage cart would do the CCM replacement when they can't finish the job, but this isn't the first time I've heard of one doing just that.

WOW, the car sat for 4 months and the odometer reset itself. I wouldn't walk away from that one, I'd run like hell. Bullsh!t lies like that and what else is he lying about?
Side note, I just went out into the garage and my 90's odometer has reset itself to zero over the winter since it has been sitting since October.
