Digital speed indication - yes or no

Post by rlw »

mrsrlw has just bought a Scirocco R, to be collected tomorrow. After years of driving cars with a digital speed readout - CLK55 followed by GT3 - I'm slightly alarmed to think that the Scirocco might not have one. Please put my mind at rest......

Thanks

OK. Answered my own question. Yes there is.

Just be aware that the digital speed is in KM/H as standard - i believe this can be changed to mph and it also enlarges the digital readout but to do so it need to be done using Vag-Com

Easy coding changes..
That being said the normal speedo is very easy to read.

You can set the MFD to display the big digital speedo in MPH with Carista which is a paid for app for your phone plus an OBDII dongle
