You can’t flash the mileage yourself. Take it to the dealer and they can flash it a hundred or so miles ahead of your 3” allowing you to get home and swap it when the mileage is close.

You might want to read through the AlfaOBD thread. From what I've read about updating the EVIC cluster mileage and engine hours can be dependent on what equipment you use.

There have been a few members on here that have successfully done the cluster upgrade and updated the mileage and engine hours.

Your not gonna find any dealer that can or will mess with an odometer.... there’s only two ways to get it adjusted. Send it someone who can adjust it or adjust it yourself with AlfaOBD.

Wow, never heard of anyone being successful at getting a dealer to do it. Usually when the replace an odometer they have to have the factory send it preprogrammed.
