Default discrepancy in mileage

i got a 95 civic, and the speedo went out. so i got a new one, well i sold the car. now i have the car back and on the title it says: WARNING: NOT ACTUAL MILEAGE. and i know its the cluster i put in it. well i still have the original cluster and i THINK i still have the paper form the junk yard that i got the cluster thats in the car now that says what the mileage was when i bought it. could i bring the original cluster and the paper down to the DMV and have that changed?

Once it is titled a mileage rollback, it's a mileage rollback

I believe the car is already branded, kinda like Salvaged Title, but it's a TMU.

If you know how many miles it has, then why does it really matter. The only time where i could see this as a problem is if you were to buy car only to discover the mile age had been tampered with, but in your example idont get why you have a problem with what it says.

Of course, it's against the law the tamper with the odometer

Which technically is not legal unless done by a repair shop/dealership. When they do this they put a sticker usually in the door jam that states the original milage when the odo broke. Then you take and add the 2 together.
