So i got the car fax today and i wanted to know how many miles my car has, right now it reads 21k and this is what i found 75,287 01/10/1997 77,463 03/04/1997 78,000 03/06/1997 95,164 01/13/1998 95,169 01/14/1998 104,119 11/17/1999 43,891 05/15/2009 Possible Odometer Rollback/Rollover 92,000 11/07/2011 92,435 11/16/2011 92,812 12/15/2011 I was thrown off by the 104,119 but i guess it was actually 10,411.9 and they read it wrong. So it was doing 104k miles back in 99 so when it gets its next reading its in 09 and it has 43k. Now 33k miles in 10 years for a Geo metro, i don't think so, the car shows activity in between those years 12/19/1999 SAN DIEGO, CA Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE 03/29/2004 SAN DIEGO, CA Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL 03/29/2004 CA State Agency PASSED EMISSION INSPECTION EMISSION INSPECTION 04/08/2004 SAN DIEGO, CA Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE 01/18/2008 CA State Agency PASSED EMISSION INSPECTION 01/22/2008 SAN DIEGO, CA Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL 02/01/2008 SAN DIEGO, CA Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE 11/07/2008 CA State Agency FAILED EMISSION INSPECTION 04/08/2009 CA State Agency FAILED EMISSION INSPECTION 05/15/2009 YUMA, AZ 43,891 Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE (Title #:R023009135014) REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL Then the car appears in Yuma with the 43k miles, i think it rolled over to 243k miles and by now it has 21k on the clock, so 321k miles? so around 80k miles in 4 years or 20k miles a year, could be? does my car have 221k or 321k, we might never now =o What do you guys think? |

actually the car is super peppy, it has headers and a glass pack and i have to say it tuns perfectly! i deliver pizzas so i drive the engine a lot and i push it, i pretty much drive it like a stole it. I just cleaned the EGR seafomed it and replaced the CTS and it runs perfect =3 compression was 160 155 155 i reached 100 mph =o in Mexico in the paid toll road... very nice roads by the way Edited by pvr007, Apr 26 2013, 04:09 PM.

Answer- a bunch I'd say 321k. It appears that the PO put miles on it fairly quickly, so I'd say it rolled over a 2nd time between '99 and '09 |

Maybe the PO changed out clusters. I have thrown in 3 clusters since I've owned my metro. I really don't know how many miles on my whip. I just know I keep it in great shape and it doesn't let me down. |

you car has 6 numbers on the clock... however can anyone say if a 91 Geo had six numbers for the mileage? (mine had 5.0 and no tach, so I switched to 6.0 digits and a tach) If it did originally have 6.0 digits i would say your odometer was replaced. It did NOT roll over as that would have meant 1,000,000 miles. Is your car a standard or automatic? does your current odometer have a Tach? Perhaps the original did not? and they switched to one that did. Or the old one just broke. Edited by scubaman, Apr 26 2013, 06:22 PM.

Given 104000 miles in 8 years i would assume another 100,000 miles to 2009, then 50,000 miles to 2011, For a grand total of 250,000 miles. i have a 96 and i have 160000 miles |

My 91 4 door manual reads 59k miles nowadays, I'm assuming from the condition the car is in it has at least 259k on it, still runs great, just for a car thats as old as I am, its in as rough of shape as I am ![]() Maybe I should run a car fax as well... Geo glenn worries me, mine could have 559 for all I know... Edited by Oden, May 12 2013, 04:12 PM.

When I registered the RH skate, I too had the odometer flag, and it was because someone guessed on the odometer reading and put '16000' on the paperwork. Not sure why the DMV took that round number as the truth. |
