Default Inadvertent 'clocking'?

Audi A1 1.2 TFSI 2011.
I've inadvertently 'clocked' my car 37K by fitting a matching used replacement instrument cluster which now shows 29K instead of the 'real' 66K. Can an Audi service centre re-clock it FORWARD to match 'real' mileage?

The answer to my own question seems to be yes....provided I buy a new cluster with 0 mileage from them. Clocking from a 'non-standard part?' is not a goer as they can't give a guarantee....a fine excuse!
If you live in the NW of England and have any diagnostic problems then try Digi Dash NW (Preston). With the car on my driveway they sorted my clocking problem and associated flashing speedo warning lights in 20 minutes. No fuss, no bother and all done with Audi equipment for which he pays them 35K a year. They aren't cheap but better than paying three times the price at the Service Centre!!.....I'm well pleased.
