not exactly sure what you are trying to do but it appears you're just trying to add one to that counter field every time a mileage record is inserted or updated

 

use this for that

 

trigger tgrCounter on Mileage__c (before insert, before update)

{
    for(Mileage__c m: Trigger.new)
    {
        m.Counter__c = m.Counter__c+1;
    }
}

You are trying to update a record in an after-trigger on this record. This should be done in a before-trigger.

 

Hope this helps,
