There is no such function, and even if there was a way it would be illegal. We would all be buying 03 GTs for $10K with 200 miles on them

Which function are you referring to Saki?

I have towed my PT four wheels down for thousands of miles without the mileage registering. All of the motorhomers I know with PT's do the same (with one exception that uses a tow dolly). As far as the mystery 0.1-0.2 miles, I am offering a possible reason for the occassional registration of 0.2 miles or less after the engine is shut off and the vehicle then immediately towed four down. As an example, I recently towed my PT from Texas to Los Angeles behind my motorhome with four wheels down. When I arrived, the odometer had 0.6 miles more on it than when I left Texas three days and over 1,200 miles earlier.

I and another PT owner have duplicated the same thing by finding a long downhill grade, getting up to 45 mph or more, shutting the engine off (without locking the steering wheel) putting the transmission in neutral then coast down the hill. Sometimes you get 0.0 miles added. Other times you get 0.1 or 0.2 miles accumulated. I have yet to see more than 0.2 miles accumulate after the engine is turned off regardless of how far you travel with the engine off.

I don't know if this mileage occurs with the 5-speed or not. The PT's that I have experienced it on were automatics.

Hope that clarifies what I am saying.
