If you mean that the odometer had reset itself, that could mean the battery had been disconnected. Do you still have the same engine? Or they could have zeroed it to avoid showing how many miles their boy racers did in it... Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

Maybe it was the result of them hiding the mileage racked up by the 'extreme off-road events' company that they hired it out to for 40 days ! FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

Just had the same problem, blank screen. Returned today from a week in the Norwegian Fjords from Harwich and had a blank screen. Drove for approx 2 hours and stopped for a bite to eat and to fill up on route to St. Helens, Merseyside and when we returned to the car all worked as it should. No more miles on the clock and it had averaged 30 MPG when I filled it up at the service station. I wonder if it is some kind of power saving thing if the battery goes below a certain voltage? Pete |
