Has your VW dealer been any use?
The odometer on my 2001 VW Golf (UK model) has an LCD display that shows miles. I understand that there is a way to set it to kilometers, but that it is in a secret garage handbook somewhere. On the other hand, my the handbook in my wife's 2004 Renault Scenic explains how to flip between metric and imperial units. Ideally, we will change the speedometer to show km/h when we next cross the Channel to France. _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Remek Kocz Sent: 07 July 2007 17:30 To: U.S. Metric Association Cc: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:39013] How to switch a 2007 Passat to km/h? Volkswagen tries too hard to appear American, and as a result they end up with cars that are overwhelmingly USC. The 2007 Passat and Jetta have temps in F printed on the coolant dial and on the climate control switch. The speedometer is only in mph. All this is annoying, but it's compensated by the electronic display that can display outside temps in C, calculate fuel efficiency in km/L or L/100 km, use 24h time, etc. That pesky speedometer is the only major problem. Does anyone have an idea how to force it to calibrate to km/h? This is a first car I've come across that doesn't have a dual-display speedometer, and the instructions don't mention switching to km/h. I visit Canada frequently, so displaying my speed in km/h is critical. Thanks, Remek
