Looking for someone who will activate the large speed display on my 2010 octavia with vcds. I am southwest in Gloucester but happy to travel

Have you checked the map and list for a local member?

I can't seem to see anyone on the map. It brings up the map which is blank

Odd...

 

Closest on the map to Gloucester is @superbdreams :)

Many thanks superbdreams for activating this today for me. Top guy

Which option is it in VCDS for large mph display?

Thanks

I believe it was control modules then instruments to change the country code to Australia

I tried this and the digital speedo was still in km/h, and the odometer also changed to kilometres

You have to change the units in MFD to miles

OK I did this too, the mpg and odometer are now in miles but the digital speed display is still in km/h. There are no settings to change it from what I can see

Thanks I figured it out, I assumed the "alternate speed display" would show MPH after changing the country setting to Australia. But actually I had to uncheck that setting and enable the Digital Speed in MFD data. Works beautifully now!

Correct, the alternative is the KPH display. 👍
