I'm thinking about buying a new cluster to do some LED mods on. Is the millage stored in a chip on the cluster, or is it stored in the computer and delivered to the dash LED?

I ask because all ebay listings say "Cluster is 32,000 miles" etc. and I'm unsure if that's where my car will start off if I swap it in.

 

Im pretty sure its stored in the cars computer not in the cluster.

 

For sure stored in the computer not the Cluster

I believe it's in the BCU actually because when changing ECUs you don't lose mileage.

 

I was thinking so, but was confused because the eBay auctions list the last milage the cluster was at. I suspected it was digitally read from a computer.

Thanks.

 

It's stored if the BCM under the shifter location

 

The sellers on eBay list the mileage because they don't realize the mileage isn't stored in the cluster itself. But it's perfectly safe to swap out, I changed my 2.4 over to an SC cluster and the mileage corrected itself as soon as I turned the car on.
