Hi all new here so if I do something wrong be gentle please lol
So I have just got a uk 2014 passat bluemotion technology highline the screen in the middle of the dash has a small line showing my speed in kph I wanted to change this to mph but after lots of forums and videos it seems not possible Everything I read/watch says the only way to do this is check the "alt speed dis" in mfd settings but I don't have this option available upon further investigation I discover to enable this option I have to change the car from "uk" to "rest of the world". So here is the actual issue I'm having now. I boot up my obdeleven and go to the part where I can change from uk to rest of the world only mine says great Britain not uk and when I do change it to rest of the world or USA or Australia etc the option to check "alt speed dis" just isn't in my mfd options at all ever So please if anyone has any ideas or thoughts please share Sorry for the small novel but most people just ask for more information on forums so trying to provide as much as I can from the off Thanks Mike

Hi, I have done like this; Select Control Module 17 “Instruments” in VAG-COM/VCDS Go to Long Coding Go to Byte 0 > Bit 4-7 Change whatever location you have in there (Normally England) to “Rest of World” Click Exit and then DO IT Un-Plug your VCDS and get ready to start playing with your DIS. On your DIS go to your settings and do the following: Untick “Alt. Speed DIS” Still in settings, go to MFD Data Tick Digital Speedo Click Go Back and then Go to Units Choose Consump./dist. Scroll down and select mpg (UK), mi Once you’ve done all the above you’ll then have removed the annoying KPH display in the bottom part of your DIS / MFD and gained a nice Digital mph speedo.

Thanks for the reply Islav but unfortunately no joy I have everything in order multiple times but like I said no matter what I do I don't have the option to check/uncheck "alt speed dis" it just isn't an option I have changed from great Britain to every country in the list including rest of the world and still it's not there
