Hi, So I crossed the northern border into Canada; saw the speed limit sign in KM and looked at the speedometer and MB dropped the kilometer ring. Does the data screen convert to display speed in KM or do I need to do the math every time I cross the border?

Yes you can get your speed in kms on the screen between the speedometer and tach. Forget the combinations of buttons you have to press on the steering wheel but it is there and not too difficult to find.

Ha, Ha, Ha You are right, just shocking to realize that at 62mph (100kph).
Fiddling around with the screen I was able to post the Kph on the lower screen that shares with the transmission position.
However, that happened weeks after my return and after my original post.
Thanks for the laugh, Ray.

1. "officer I'm sorry but I flunked math when I was in elementary school!"
or
2. "sorry officer I wasn't speeding must me a mistake, the posted sign was 100 and my speedometer actually was showing only 95"
