MFD with MPH on large display issue.
« on: 03 February 2024, 20:52 »
Hi all!

A bit of a funny one here.

I have a 11 plate Gti, also a Jap Import incase that makes a differnace here.

While adding in the large digital speed display on the mfd, its only coming up in KPH.
The funny thing is the rest of the items on the MFD are in MPH, including average speed, speed warning and all that. Only the Digital Speed is in KPH.

I used my VCDS to change the country to ROW, set the units to MPG/miles and unticked the Alt Speed display in the MFD settings as required.

Can anyone advise how I can change the digial speed from KPH to MPH please?

It may be that the speedo is the original KPH one.
Another point to note, when I go back to the UK settings with the VCDS, the small digital speedo above the odometer comes up in Mph which is why its confusing me a bit.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Jamie

I seem to remember reading somewhere that you need to choose Australia as the region. This can be done using a good OBD reader and app, I use Carista for what it’s worth.
