how do I change the display from miles to Km? I was told to go to address 17 then channel 07. I cant see where to enter a channel number?
Somewhere there is a number 01152 which you change to 01452? Is this right? how the hell do I get to it please?  |

To get the odo to display in km and the DIS mpg, etc to be in KM, you have to change the actual coding of the instrument cluster (17)
So you need to go 17, then 07 (coding), and then input the no. you've been given
Write down the original/existing coding before you start messing around. |

Speedometers have a built-in factory error to show a speed faster than your actual speed.
The Climatronic (climate control) system has diagnostic codes that you can access by the pressing of certain buttons on the Climate Control console.
One of these codes shows your actual speed of travel without the built-in error.
These codes are accessed by one of the following procedures………..
_______________________________________________________________
A/- To access the actual speed display, start your car and then on your climate control panel press and hold-in the recirculation button. Then at the same time, press the upward pointing arrow button above the recirculation button.
Your climate control screen will change to a different mode displaying 1c.
Use your temperature control + button to display code 17c. This is the actual speed display feature.
Press the recirculation button again to activate the code and to display it’s reading.
To revert your Climate Control to normal mode, simply press the Economy button.
________________________________________________________________
B/- To access the actual speed code on some VW's (Passat’s etc) the following method applies....
Hold-in Fan Down, Temperature Colder, ECON all at the same time. Use the + / - temperature control buttons to view the various codes. Code 16 (sometimes 17) is the speed code.
Code 16 displays the speed you are travelling at on your centre screen in km/hr. This enables you to compare your speedometer reading relevant to your actual speed.
To revert your Climate Control to normal mode, simply press the Economy button.

My bad!
I thought you meant re-coding the instrument cluster through the A/C panel!
Yeh there's quite a few values you can access through the A/C |
