It is do-able... depending on the revision number of your instrument panel (I think?)
Works on some and not others.

Needle sweep coding;

17 instruments >> 10 adaption >> staging activated

This can only be done if your car is build from week 45, or you update the firmware to 575 (mine has 353) by your dealer.

km tot mph can also be changed by vag.com cable or like in mine car simply by goining to the option "Unit" in the board computer

Other codings can be found here, it's only in German  :sad:

To Display large MPH on the MFD .

Go into controller 17 Instruments and change location to USA.
 
Click do it and exit. On MFD settings, scroll down to alt.speed. and untick.
 
In MFD info display tick digital speed.

 
You should now be able to have the big digital MPH showing in your MFD.

Same here - I suppose its the downside of setting the car as American - as all American cars bong when you start them up!
I think I'm just going to change my settings back to UK.

It's not a start-up bong, It's because you havn't got your seatbelt on(it's a seatbelt warning).You don't notice it in UK mode because it only start's beeping when you go over 10mph where in USA mode it bong's straight away when you don't have your seatbelt on.
 
The bong you hear when the door is open is because you have the key's in the ignition.

Daft question maybe.

Wouldn't changing to the U.S setting mean that mpg will be worked out for U.S gallons?
