Re: Mechanic Pass on PC not working

I can confirm the same, actually I just did a test and I would dare to say that the mileage gained is even worse than normal!

I play on Xbox Series X with the deluxe edition (got all the deluxe edition cars in my garage so I assume the mechanical pass is added as well).

My test was to race 5 laps of the Crescent Valley oval (via race creator) in the Clio Cup. That is 5 x 4.06 km = 20.3 km distance.

Before the race:

Clio Cup was 20 km driven according to garage upgrades

Touring car sponsor event was 18 km driven (active sponsor card)

After the race:

Clio Cup was 34 km driven (also got a post race update for 14 km added)

Sponsor card was increased to 31 km (that’s 13 km added)

I assume the 13 or 14 km added difference is because of rounding down numbers. But both are NOT the 20 km distance that 5 laps of the Crescent Valley should be! Is the mechanic pass given a negative effect or so? Or is this a mess up of miles vs kilometers? Either way, something is messed up!
