The disclosure generally relates to a method for remote reading the tamper-proof storage of the odometer reading in a vehicle by, for example, making available an alternative wireless method for the accessing of odometer reading data. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method for remotely reading odometer data in a vehicle having control units which are connected via a data bus. The odometer reading data, which is determined at a particular time by an odometer, can be stored in a storage means of a first control unit, thereby providing an alternative method for remotely accessing odometer reading data and, in particular, improved protection against errors during the transmission of the odometer reading data. The current odometer reading data of at least one further control unit is then stored on the data bus in a storage means. The control units transmit the odometer reading data, which is stored at a particular time, onto the data bus at specific time intervals, and a control unit accepts the odometer reading transmitted onto the data bus if that reading is higher than its stored value, and uses that value for the further counting and radio transmission of odometer reading data.
