Instrument Cluster Odometer Dot Came On
 
1 Attachment(s)
After getting my car serviced for a CEL, I noticed a dot after the kilometer reading (picture attached). They did change the iDrive Knob and did a complete programming. Is this the odometer tamper dot?

Could be a software update "feature" perhaps? I'm interested too.

What does the service invoice say they did to resolve the CEL?

LCM and odometer manipulation dot - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

It sounds like they replaced one of the modules where the mileage is stored and did not program it with the correct mileage...


P.S. A Google of "BMW odometer dot" will get you a lot more information... Google is your friend.

The CEL was on due to intercooler plausibility and temperature sensor problem. The dot was only coming on when I used the key which was not given to the dealer at the time of service. The dot BTW has gone away now.
