Default Miles to KM

I'm pretty sure I can get a new speedo to convert Miles to KM... is it possible to have my ECU flashed or somehow have all the read outs switched form Miles to KM?

I'm looking at purchasing a 2004 S4, fromt he states. I live in Canada.

Anyone done this, or know if its possible?

most speedo have the MPH to KPH and vise versa depending on the country. the odometer oyu cant really change. if oyu find a KPH speedo just swap that in its the same on both car, the only difference is teh numbers.

yea, I'm in canada right now, and my car has only KPH on the speedo, no miles... I've never seen another car like that. My gramps drives an A6, haven't really noticed his, but my old '89 100 had both MPH & KPH

You can only leagally get a brand new cluster and the current mileage will be "burned" into the cluster by a certified technician and documented for federal reasons.
