Default Royale with cheese? The Metric System?

Well, it was one of my favorite lines in Pulp Fiction when Samuel L Jackson asked a kid soon to get clipped - "Why don't they call it a Quarterpounder with Cheese in France?" - and the kid said "The metric system?"


Well, last night, my climate control screens - and the outside temperature reading on the instrumentation panel went all metric on me.

For the record, it was 13 degrees celcius when I drove home from work tonight.

Not sure if i want to stay all metric - and I am sure I can read the manual and find a toggle for this somewhere...but I gotta ask - has this happened to anyone else?

Cheers!

Seems like you have the trip computer. If you hit the reset button twice within 2-3 seconds you will enter the menu. From there you can navigate around to change the units

no trip computer i think means you press and hold the recirculate button for 3-5 seconds to switch...try it.

just dealt with this last week when i was doing some mods w/the vag com. all you have to do is hold the recirc button and at the same time, on the climate control + and - button on the DRIVER'S side, hold it in the + direction until it switches back to F.
