Different speed increments on the speedo... other than that, quite possibly.Originally posted by Ryan_R View Post2008 MkV Volkswagen Golf R32 DSG

That seems too inefficient for ze Germans - I've never noticedComment

Not so! The GTI cluster does staging and has a higher canbus query rate.Originally posted by Ryan_R View PostComment

I meant visually, plus isn't staging just a VCDS setting (for build week 45, 2010 and newer). PolarFIS takes care of the higher canbus query rate if that's what I think it is.
How's your R going? Any mods yet?Comment

Staging is the needle sweep on ignition.
Can bus is the source of data/information displayed on the MFD - higher query rate means it's refreshed/updated/polled more often.Comment

All right, I can't find an answer to this...too hard to search for (well, took longer than a minute and my tiny mind has no attention span).
In the voice guidance of the satnav, the lady keeps saying this same word every single time for every single destination and I have no idea what it is! Has anyone else noticed this? She says, for instance, "At the roundabout, take the 1st exit toward _____". And the blank word sounds like "Dalmy" or "Dalmick". "Keep on this road for a long time, then make a left toward "Dalmer"! What is her problem?!Click or tap --> MY13 CW Golf R | Manual | ACC (deleted) | 19" Black Talladegas (sold) | Satnav-Dynaudio

If you had DSG you wouldn't have to fight so hard to hear her beautiful voice over that 6MT's nasty Synchro

That version of maps has "Dummy" data for spoken suburb names (previous versions didn't speak names at all).Comment
-
OK, this is leaning toward what I was thinking. So based on any point during the route, the guidance should be saying which suburb I'm heading toward, like it says on street signs...but for some reason, it doesn't actually have that data so it just has a placeholder? Is she actually saying "dummy"?Originally posted by Ryan_R View Post

We are all waiting for the v7 maps upgrade... I thought it was the recent firmware update that introduced this "dummy" quirk.---
