I have no manual for my car and I was wondering what the different readings mean when you press the button on the end of the wiper arm stalk???
I tried to search but I'm not coming up with anything.
Thanks . . . . again!

thats the mfa button...it gives various readings like mpg,oil temp,distance travelled,average speed and outside temp (to name a few). you'll notice theres 2 settings on a slide switch that gives single journey details and overall (since reset)
-
Oh ok, thank you, I think the reason I didn't click is it says by the little screen something like l/1000km or something, its all in km?!?!
-
You have clock issues!!
-
Is that only on the GTi's?

yep....if you look on my dials you'll see the writing next to the right hand lcd (and there's a hack so you can have a digital speedo and rev counter :wink:)

mine are seat dials and the earlier mk3's had slightly different looking dials...post a pic and we'll see if there unusual :wink:
-
Yeah, you can get the digital speedo on all of them. I can get it on my CL and the GL. Both don't have the MPG ect. Could that be put in?
-
mmm, I'll put a pic up, knowing how to get the digital speedo up would be really handy seeing as my speedo doesn't work. . . . or would it not work this way either?

These are my clocks;
I have no indicator light to let me know when my petrol is low either? do they normally?

they dont have a petrol warning light! (i found out the hard way :cry:) and im guessing your clocks must be german ones or something??? as the km/kmh should be miles/mph and the l/100km should be mpg

I found out about the petrol light the hard way too!!!!!
do you think my mileage would be in km too then? do you know how would I find that out??

dont really know how you could find out.. but it does say miles above it so i would punt for that.. :undecided:
-
what a der brain! I didn't even see that!!!! Thank you for pointing it out!!
strange why there is miles on one side and mk on the other!
-
sammie - i think you need some petrol?
-
sammie - i think you need some petrol?
mine does 30 miles with the needle on the rest :shocked:
-
and you don't want the fuel light!! It comes on way way way too early!! (with about 100-150 miles left!!) i am guessing them clocks showing km/h have being messed about with!! I am sure its simple to adjust back to mph (I will have a look and see what I can find!)
-
non of that hack thread tells you how to get the digital speado just revs and things or am i being stupid
