Odometer, Adaptation
Odometer, Adaptation
NOTE:
- Total distance travelled by the vehicle can be read from the malfunctioning instrument cluster or determined by vehicle service history.
- Total distance travelled display of new instrument cluster must not be more than 100 km (63 mi) before adaptation.
- Total distance travelled to be transferred to the new instrument cluster must exceed 100 km (63 mi).
- Adapting total distance travelled is only possible once and only in a positive (upwards) direction.
- Adaptation can be interrupted with the "C" button of the VAG 1551/1552 Scan Tool (ST)
- Correcting a false entry which has been confirmed is not possible. The instrument cluster must be exchanged for a new one.
- For US models, the country code must first be changed to "Canada" before entering the adaptation value.
- Adaptation value on instrument clusters must be entered in kilometers. For US models, adaptation value must be converted from miles to kilometers first (miles x 1.609 = kilometers).
Example:
The malfunctioning instrument cluster has an odometer display of 89627 (either kilometers or miles). The odometer display can be transferred to the new instrument cluster as follows:
- Connect VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST), select 1 "Rapid Data Transfer", switch on ignition, input address word 17 "Instrument cluster".
- Press -Q- button to confirm input.
Various data appears in the display. The manufacturer's code is also displayed.
NOTE: US vehicles from 1999 m.y. must temporarily be changed to "Canada".

- Input adaptation value (odometer reading) using VAG 1551/1552 button pad.
The last position of the odometer reading must be rounded off to the nearest 10.
For US models, first convert miles to kilometers (e.g., 55704 mi X 1.609 = 89627 km)
An odometer reading of 89627 kilometers produces an adaptation value of:
- Input adaptation value using using VAG 1551/1552 button pad.

If adaptation value is not correct, e.g. a false entry:
- Press -C- button to input correct value.
- Press -Q- button to confirm input.

Changed value is stored
- Press -> button to complete adaptation sequence.
NOTE:
- For Canadian vehicles, the procedure is now complete.
- For US vehicles, instrument clusters must now be returned from kilometers to miles (change country code).

Distance impulse number (K number), reading
The distance impulse number is a constant used by the instrument cluster to calculate speed and distance travelled.
NOTE:
- The distance impulse number (K number) is preset from the manufacturer and cannot be changed.
- To change the distance travelled number, a code number corresponding to the vehicle engine/gearbox combination must be entered using function 07 "Code Control Module".
- For instrument clusters with a display in miles, the distance impulse number will still be displayed for kilometers.
- Distance impulse number for miles can be converted to kilometers (Distance impulse number for kilometers x 1.609 = distance impulse number for miles).
- Interrupt reading of distance impulse number by pressing C button on VAG 1551.
- Connect scan tool VAG 1551, select operating mode 1 "Rapid data transfer", switch on ignition and enter address word 17 "Instrument cluster".
