FYI, there have been a few occurances of odo's jumping ahead by up to 20k miles when the battery cable is removed. My car was one of the few. Luckily, the car had just gone thru emission testing, and the correct miles were well documented. Luclily, I noticed the change.

Swapped the cluster in my wife's Sunfire years ago and the miles stayed the same. I'am betting on one of the computers storing it.

The ESC (Electronic Service Center) programs the correct mileage into the cluster. The technician will then load the mileage from the cluster into the Corvette's BCM via the Tech 2.

#07-08-49-020E: IPC Odometer Programming Method Quick Reference Guide
Subject:IPC Odometer Programming Method Quick Reference Guide

Models:2003-2012 GM Passenger Cars and Trucks

The purpose of this bulletin is to provide a reference guide to help identify which season odometer programming method to use after replacing the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The three season odometer programming methods in use today are listed below. In addition, this reference guide lists the component where the season odometer value is stored. The season odometer value may be stored in the IPC, the driver information center (DIC) or the integrated body control module (IBCM), also commonly called a body control module (BCM).
Season Odometer Programming Methods in Use Today

1. IPC reprogramming and setup using the service programming system (SPS).

2. Odometer setup at the electronic service center (ESC) when using an exchange IPC/DIC.

3. Tech 2® – The Tech 2 is used to set up a replacement BCM, which includes loading the odometer value that is displayed and stored in the IPC. A replacement IPC will display the previously stored vehicle odometer value, communicated from the BCM, after cycling the ignition or driving the vehicle.

*The odometer programming is integrated as part of the BCM programming procedure. It is not a stand-alone event.

Is there any possible way the milage can be turned back on a c6 corvette? Yes.

Since I just turned 100K yesterday, I thought about putting a piece of tape over the "1" and imagining I was starting over. Then I realized my average MPG readout would never exceed 9.9 and I'd be depressed.

I don't know. Third base? Wrong again?
