Changing the odometer readings from Miles to Kilometer

Hi,

Is it possible to change the odometer readings from Miles to Kilometers in the new S550's?

Interesting that they've brought this back. I mean it used to be there on older car models, then disappeared (does not exist on my W221) and now seems to be back (not only the additional digital speedo but all, like further below).

Showing or hiding the digital speedometer

You can also show the digital speedometer in the multi-function display.
Vehicles with a kilometre speedometer: the digital speedometer has mph units. Vehicles with a miles speedometer: the digital speedometer has km/h units.
Use the buttons on the multi-function steering wheel.
Press or to select the Settings menu.
Press or to select Dig. speedo.
Press .
If you want to change the setting, press again.

Selecting the unit of measurement for distance
  • The analogue speedometer
  • The total distance recorder and the trip meter
  • All values in From start and From reset in the Trip menu
  • The digital speedometer in the Trip menu
  • The distance values in the navigation system*
  • Cruise control
  • Speedtronic
  • Distronic* or Distronic Plus*
The digital speedometer shows alternative speed unitsmore.
Use the buttons on the multi-function steering wheel.
Press or to select the Settings menu.
Press or to select Units.
Press .
If you want to change the setting, press again.
You can then switch between km/h and mph.

I have an '07 but I had the '08 comand/telematics upgrade. I haven't checked yet (will later), but do you guys think I have this option since I got the upgrade? Or is this something outside of that upgrade?

Thanks for the detailed instructions Diesel

I think I just found the answer to my own question. Went through the motions and the resounding answer seems to be:

No.

I don't think changing the odometer from miles to kilometres on a W221 would cancel the O2 sensor on a W220. I would suggest starting a new thread on a W220 section (but wouldn't the answer be "by a new sensor"?).
