Ok, the thread has been straightened out, thank you Donbrew.

Ronnie, the odometer is controlled by the BCM there is a fuse in the console fuse panel marked cluster, check the fuse.
then let’s explore the possibility of a bad ground wire or loose pin in the instrument panel harness.

Did you read the previous thread?

I guess I could move all of these post to the old thread so we don't get any more confused..
Did you go back to whoever sold the car? - he blocked me
Does a code reader read the correct VIN? - yes
Did you read the previous thread? - I did

I think I was ignored when I suggested that. But, I'm used to that.

Not ignored Ronnie, back in Feb when you spoke of a thread, the subject was VVT codes and speedometer . This link I posted was about odometer problems.

From post #3 in this thread:
The odometer data is stored in the BCM. If the I/P or BCM was replaced without proper programming the odometer will be unreliable.

Your title should reflect true mileage and should note any changes. It is federal law that current mileage be disclosed upon sale of a car, so your DMV should have records and you may have legal recourse.
​​​​​​​And post #13 explaining the why.
