I think it's going to be hard to roll back a digital odometer. Anything's possible. But to roll back the odometer would mean having to dismantle the dash, get the gauge cluster out, solder off the microchip and reprogram it.

my understanding that this is quite do-able and the people that provide the service usually charge a couple of hundreds for this and the seller can easily recoup the costs. The only thing is that sometimes there are multiple computers in the car and if the alteration doesn't sync up, it may cause issues down the road. Best to make sure there are ways to cross reference the mileage..... carfax is a good source

look at the brake pedal/accelerator pedal and see what the wear is like. Condition/wear of seats and pedals is usually a good indicator of mileage
