Changing Odometer reading from Miles to Kilometers by trilium1

I have a 2008 Veracruz (love it!) that I purchased in the US and brought into Canada. Does anyone know how to convert the electronic odometer and electronic climate control systems to display the readings in metric? I couldn't find anything in the owners manual. There must be a way to do it without changing out the whole system.

I did the same thing, where did u purchase yours? I got mine from Bellingham which is nice and close to the border. Mine is unique as well, u can't get Satin Beige in Canada. As for your question, u can only change the settings to convert from farenheit to celcius. It is in the owners manual. I don't have access to the manual at the moment but I do remember how to convert the heat settings. Press the DUAL switch and press MODE at the same time till it converts the setting, then you're done. Keep on Cruzin'

Hey thanks Brooch! I will try that. I purchased mine in Missoula, Montana. Got the Black with the Saddle leather interior, very sharp. The only thing it is missing is Bluetooth but I'll add that later I guess. Thanks again.
 
Oh and by the way, are you saying that it is not possible to convert the odometer readings to kilometers or you just are not sure how it is done?

I called the tech and he said the only way to do it is to switch out the odometer for
the Canadian version. I thought it was done thru the computer because thats how BMW's are done but I guess I was wrong. BTW, have u installed the day time running lights yet? Once I get this done, I can finally get it inspected and registered. I am in Calgary btw.

Yes I had the dealer in Montana install the day time running lights. Now I'm just waiting for the form 2 and inspection. I'm in Edmonton. Thanks again for the info.

Is the DRL a plug-in module? Can you get it in the US?

I have 6,100 miles on my vehicle. I noticed about 3 weeks ago that the trip computer would reset to zero on its own. Sometimes when I get in to leave office for home or sometimes when I start to work in the morning. The total miles since last fill up do not reset, but the MPG, avg. MPH, and the elapsed time starts over. Anyone else experience this?

I have my VC for 4 weeks. I noticed it from day one. I've already have given the dealer a heads up. He needs to see it happen (HA HA). Have you solved your problem yet

No resolution. My dealer said they would need to see it happen and the chances of them seeing that are slim to none, unless they want to keep it for a couple of weeks. They told me that there have been no other reports to dealers regarding this issue. Worse case, they remove the dash cluster and install a new one. That means the odometer is reset to zero which then requires certification on the title and a notice on the door of the vehicle; not an option for me. Since the temps here in TX have increased, my computer seldom resets.
