You'll have issues with your transmission and the entire gauge cluster will light up like a chrismas tree with warning lights after that. G/L convincing your dealer about what happened.

What are you trying to accomplish? If it's getting around the nannies that restrict functionality while driving, see this thread linked from our FAQ page: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=193739

Each wheel has it's own speed sensor. Disconnecting them would not have desirable results at all.

Looks like someone who's trying some odometer forgery.

If you want your car to stay low mileage don't drive it.
