MFD Alternative Display

[kazmeyers]

When I change it to the alternative display mode, where it shows more of the information on the screen instead of one single thing, the speed shows as MPH and not KPH. I have set it to KPH in the settings, but only in the alt display does it show MPH. Is this the same for everyone else?

I hope that make sense :S

I thought the alternative display was used to change between MPH and KMH, not to display more info?

It's just meant to be a slightly different layout of the information. Anyways, I looked it up on the Golf forums and found that its just the way they've designed it, with no known work-around. Oh well.

All the information i have read pointed to people using it when they cross the border from the US to Canada as it switches between MPH and KM/H

Never knew it had a different layout.

The Alternate Speed Display is all about giving you a mph readout when your MFD and speedometer are configured for km/h (such as in Australia), and vice versa - good for Europeans driving between the UK (mph) and the continent (km/h), for instance.

It doesn't give you more info - the mph display takes the place of the temperature display in most Golfs (and presumably the 'Roc), and also disables the large km/h page in the MFD.

Oh I see. Thanks for clearing that up Adam.
