On my T6 4motion I have a "winter tyres" option within the MFD. Corrects the speedo +10km/hr or -10km/hr. Perfect for running bigger circumference wheels / tyres.
I saw this "winter tire option" in my MFD, when i first got, but didn't think anything of it.
Re WINTER TYRES
Bad news . . this setting relates to the speed at which an audible warning is given that the vehicle is approaching the rated speed of the tyres. This is apparently lower for Winter Tyres.
From another Forum Quote from the manual....
Winter tyres
Here you can set at which speed a warning signal should sound. This function is used
for e.g winter tyres with the permissible maximum speed less than the maximum
speed of the vehicle.
When exceeding the speed, the following is displayed on the information display*:
Snow tyres max. speed ... km/h (Winter tyres maximum ... km/h)
Seikel, amongst their information online, offer a Speedometer adjustment service when changed tyres/wheels are added to their lift kit. The change for Earlier T5's is pretty expensive but E35.70 for post 2011 vehicles suggests it is a simple change.
FWIW
Speedo adjustment
for Volkswagen T5 up to MY 2010
446,25 € (incl. tax)
375,00 € (ex. tax)
for Volkswagen T5 from MY 2011
35,70 € (incl. tax)
30,00 € (ex. tax)
might cost a bit to take the van to germany to get them to change the speedo setting
Im assuming those prices are in house?
Sucks about the winter tire option, ill have to look at the manual, as I've overseas, earlier models only had speed warning and later models looked like speedo was an option.
