    I found mine was the opposite, whilst it said i was doing 110, i was actually doing about 100 on the GPS, which was further supported by those things on the highway that tell you how fast your going

      You've got to reading for these Polo's. One is a reading that resets when either time or distance reaches a maximum, eg. 9999km. The other will automatically reset 2 hours after the ignition is turned off.

      I don't know of any hidden trip functions.

        Thats what I meant, 100km/h on the speedo is only 90km/h on the freeway signs, likewise at 110 on the speedo is 101km/h on the signs.

          Damn I was really hoping they would have hidden a digital speedo in there somewhere. Oh well.

          On Friday night at the speed check on the Hume heading out of Melbourne 105 indicated on the speedo was 98 actual.

            Speedo in the Polo has got to be one of its weakest points. Compared to that of my Accord Euro Luxury 5AT, which uses LARGE and EASILY read letters, the Polo is exactly the opposite. Absolutely hate it.

            I resort to using the Roadangel KPH output most of the time, except when in tunnels where I have to squint to see if I'm doing just abut the right offset to get a real speed. Displaying ~117 when you're doing 105 is really not on. Is it at all an easy task to get this corrected? My tyres are @ 36 PSI.

            Best speedo I ever had was that of the GSXR600k4/5. Can't fault large and easily read numbers.
