UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

I was searching on ebay for some VW items and came across this item (if you can call it that).

This is it.

Do you own a VW Golf, Passat, Polo, Bora, Beetle or Lupo fitted with Climate Control, MY1998 to mid 2003?

For a nominal payment of £1.99 I will email you instructions on how to digitally display your actual speed of travel sent from your ECU as opposed to the erranous reading displayed on your speedometer with it's factory built-in percentage error.
You will also be able to display other varied ECU information and diagnostic features. This info includes accurate readings of Engine Coolant Temperature, RPM etc. This info is supplied free of charge.
No tools or equipment are necessary, it is activated/deactivated in seconds and is completely harmless to your car.

Can anyone tell me what this is about?

It's a scam. The info is readily available for free. You just push some buttons, apply the secret handshake and presto.

If I had climate control I'd probably know myself, but for now I'll let someone else tell you how it's done.

Have a butchers at the below link...jeez, I've only been in London two months and I'm already beginning to pick up the lingo!

i cant do this as i haven't got climate control

16 Speed in km/h

is that of the car, or of the fans/airflow/some other heating thing




cant think why vw would link the climate control up to the speedo, makes no sense
