The car computer mileage and the display mileage don't compare is a common problem if you change the cluster. Programing is the only way to be repaired. Or don't look the odometer.

Even if you had star unless the cluster is brand new you can't fix the issue. The cluster gets locked to the car it is first installed on after a few thousand miles from my understanding.
