Does anybody else have this problem? My trip/oil odometer does not go past 999.9 miles...it just resets back to 0.0 miles. It has done this since the car was new.

Not sure if it's a PCM problem or an I.C. problem. Anyhow, I'm getting ready to take the SS in for a few warranty items and I wanted to do some research on this before taking her in.

If the "trip" odometer has 4 digits, isn't it normal to reset at 1000 miles? I don't think you have a problem.

I thought I remembered reading about that somewhere, anyway, mine is the same.

My '97 (also with digital odometers) used to be able to go up to 9999.9 before rolling over. I'm not sure if they changed it for 2001 or if I have some soft of bug.

Can anybody with a 2001 confirm that this is normal?

Hmmmm...seems kinda weird to call it a trip/ OIL odometer if it resets every 1000 miles. Guess I'll mention it to the service consultant anyhow.

It resets after it gets to 999.9 for the trip. I have a 01 SS. Also, my 99 Z24 did the same. BOth are digital readouts
