Cruise Control true speed.

AWVRS · 27-05-2007, 17:14

Can someone remind me how I get the cruise control to tell me my true instantaneous speed? I remember the dealer telling me during his handover speil, but obviously I was daydreaming about getting my mitts on the car at the time (and the manual's pretty useless).

You get the true(ish) instantaneous speed from the speedometer.

Cruise control afaik has no way of giving you this.

True speed can be found via gps.

I think you may be confusing it with the climatronic readout.
