That is really strange, I have had my mx-3 for like just over 3 years now and nothing ever strange has happened with the odometer.<P>I think your suspicions about a roled back odometer might be a good possibility because the odometer doesn't just decide to change figures like that out of the blue unless maybe it was tampered with.<P>Maybe go to a Mazda dealer and see what you can find out about it.
