Remanufactured engine
I meant to ask this before, but I got a remanufactured engine put in a few months ago and I noticed the odometer is still at the same mileage. Are they supposed to change it or something since it is a new engine? The dealer said no, and I just thought that was weird, are they supposed to?

Sushi,
Think about it a second... would you want to buy a used car that's been driven 200,000 miles, but they just put a new engine in it, so it reads 1,000 miles on the odometer?

No, I see what your saying. I was just thinking that how do I know how much mileage is on my new engine or how do I show low mileage on a reman engine. I know it is fraud to change the odometer, but I was thinking that since it was a new engine they might do it. Never had to replace an engine before unfortunatly so wasnt really sure. Thanks for clearing it up.
