Change MFI from km/h to mph

Featured Replies

Hi

Is it possible to change the digital speed reading from km/h to mph?

I've got a 2010 VRS Estate DSG with MFI

Thanks in advance

Andy

You can remove the small KPH display and replace it with a large MPH display:

However you will need both maxidot fitted to the car (as shown above) and someone with VCDS to change the country setting to Australia:

To set the country to Australia:

To change the country go to 17- Instruments and click on "Coding - 07"

Then click on "Long Coding Helper"

Finally under Bit 4 select "70 Country: Australia (AUS)"

Exit this screen and you will return to the previous screen (with the current & new coding displayed) you see that the long coding has changed, click on "Do it!" all will then be saved.

Once you have made the changes with VCDS you then need to go into the maxi-dot menu:

SETTINGS

Units,

"Consu/distance" change this back to mpg (GB), mi (as it defaults to 1/100km, km),

then

SETTINGS

"MFD data" and make sure the box for Digit.speed is ticked

You can also remove the KPH display and replace it with the outside temperature:

SETTINGS

and unticked the "ALT.speed dis." box (this will remove the KPH speed and replace it with the outside temp display)

Simples!! :-)

Cheers for that!

Is there anyway I can then temporarily get it to show kph if I go across to the continent or is it a case of plugging it back in and changing it back?

Yes once the innitial coding has been changed via VCDS whenever you require the KPH back just go to MFD:

SETTINGS

and re-tick the "ALT.speed dis." box (this will return it back to how it is now - I.E. it will remove the outside temp display and replace it with the the KPH speed)
