iirc you cannot on the mk6 but i could be wrong on this. I think its something to do with your suppose to have a reading in KPH and MPH over here. Were as in europe they can change theres. I remember reading it somewere.

Correct. I have configured a permanent MPH reading on the MFD for when I am in the UK. Quite useful, but I could live w/o it, TBH.

How did you manage to do that ?

I can't remember, but it's just an option in the menu on continental cars. I can either have kph or mph digitally displayed, but as I already have the analogue kph dial, I thought having a simultaneous mph display might be useful for when I come over to England.

It's not nearly as exciting as R LEDs, though. I never really look at it :smiley:

Changed mine to large MPH display today, also tried the "dial sweep" change but it did'nt work on mine as you need your instrument cluster part number to end in a certain letter.

If anyone's interested how to do it will post some instructions up(VCDS NEEDED). :smiley:

I'd be interested, as I keep thinking I'm speeding when I'm not!

Actually your display should be more exciting since you never CAN watch your R Leds.... :lipsrsealed:
Anyway despite the fact that my leds will not be smokey I can hardly wait....so I know what you mean...much more exciting than standard.... :wink:

Yes please!!  I have a VCDS - just no car yet!  I can try it on my courtesy one though.
I've already tried the 'staging' sweeping dials, but it tells me its not supported.
