kmh Reading
Is it possible to get the display to show kmh in larger text?
Going abroad in June and just think the existing display is a bit small

Re: kmh Reading
I think it is possible but only via VCDS, not worth the hassle IMHO.

Re: kmh Reading
the big display activated via VCDS is in mph, not kmph
Re: kmh Reading
Not tried this - but if you keep the 'digital speed' item (ie the big display) ticked in 'MFD data' but change the units back to kph - does this change to kph also?

Re: kmh Reading
Thats really strange if you have changed the display units to kmh and litres/km....

Re: kmh Reading
Could be hardcoded to read mph. I changed units and looked up the speedo and it still had a little mph next to it. I can try again and see if the speed reading is actually mph or kph. It makes sense though, since there is already a tiny kph reading that never changes even if you change units on system
