After that, turn off the car, with the doors closed.
Wait 1-2 mins and start the car back up (no more ABC codes and no white or red lights).

How to use OBDSTAR X300M to change mileage on Audi Q5 2010

Received OBDSTAR X300M package for a few days and discussed a lot about it on forums. Sounds an interesting topic. Here share something what i did on this obdstar x300M for OBDII unit yesterday.

I used X300M for my Audi Q5 2010 to change km. Very easy; all i did was to follow the screen instruction only.

The km before change: 22850km

And this is the item for mileage adjustment; it‘s OBDSTAR Scanner obdstar x300m

Connect X300m to the OBD port on Q5
Then, follow to screen
Select the models:
VEHICLES->MILEAGE ADJUSTMENT->AUDI/VW/SKODA/SEAT



Select software AUDI/VW/SKODA/SEAT V31.11 for ready use:

Loading software …
Initializing…
Authorizing…
Select AUDI A5 2010



Then go to MILEAGE ADJUSTMENT

The X300M first read the original km (my Q5: 22850km) after communication

Next, to setup the new mileage; i input 105312


X300m change km by itself (about 10-25 min)


The dash also displays the same mileage.

So, it’s successful.
