I just got a '97 Jeep Wrangler and I suspect that the milerage counter (it's
digital on this model) has been cheated. It marks 58000 kilometers (yeah
metric system) but I think the car has about 140000 kilometers.

There is anyway to find out the real milerage? I was thinking if the
injection system computer is storing the real value in any record or log so
with the proper cable connected to the ODB-II conector and a program get the
real value. Is this possible???

Thank you in advance,
Fidelio

 

Ooops I already post this.

So the question is just if the programs reading from ODB-II connector was
that information.

Thank you,
Fidelio

I think it takes a DRB III:

I know Ford and GM's computers record the actual mileage.

Do you have carfax where you are? If not maybe you can find a dealer who has
worked on it in the past and a pattern might show up. Can/will your
licensing authority give you past owners names?
