anyone figured out how to get the oil temp shown on the digital dash by default rather than water temp which is a bit useless? Haven't found a vcds/obdeleven tweek for it yet.

Found this on Autoinstruct

Displays the engine oil temperature in the cluster.

That will allow you to select oil temperature in the driving data screen but it won't replace the water temperature gauge.

My driving data page is has "no entries". Do I have to specify what I want there on the centre screen ?

How do you get the dials reduce down when the nav is on to maximise the view in the dash?

Switch Discover Pro display to "Sport", scroll sideways to "Performance Data", and scroll 1 of the 3 gauges up/down until you see the oil temperature symbol.

Hey captain
I have had my alltrack paint protection coated
I used pomponazzi there is a extensive thread in the detailing section others have posted shots of their cars with opticoat/crystal coat check it out mate hope it helps

thanks for that - there doesn't seem to be anyone in Adelaide that does pomponazzi. Near me I have a choice of Ceramic Pro, Opticoat or Gyeon, all look pretty good options just hard to choose one!

Shame that no one does pomponazzi near you
I would definitely go a ceramic coat over opticoat tho
Just my 2 cents worth

Obviously I wasn’t pressing it. Works well. Nice.

When I used to get Opticoat for under $500 it wasn't a bad move but I just can't make the economics work on any of the coatings on a Golf. Isn't Pomp like $2k+?! That's half a set of top notch wheels.

I'll just do the detail myself. Admittedly not a major issue on a white car regardless.
