Default Changing Odometer from Miles to KM

Hi,

Just picked up our 2008 LR2. We purchased the vehicle in the US and brought her to Canada.

Im just curious as to whether its possible to change the digital odometer from miles to KM.

You will have to take it to the dealer, they will be able to reset the speed-o going thru the ECU.

Hey Mike,

So I went to a a dealership today. They spent an hour on the car and said it was impossible to change the odometer from miles to KM.

Does this make sense to you at all??

Call Rover customer service, the number is in one of your owners manuals.
Here in the states, the dealer would use their Test Bokk and go into the ECU and just switch it over.

I honestly did not pursue it any longer as it is not necessary to change it over in order to get the car up to Canadian standards.

Q: How do you ruin the reputation of one of the world greatest vehicles?
A: You let weasels like the people at Land Rover Calgary sell them!!

How bad is land Rover Calgary? Well its bad enough that they have their
own website where their customers can freely post stores about how bad
the experience is when dealing with them!

It’s a shame – amazing vehicles being represented by liars and thieves.

PS- on a disco press and hold the odem buttom and it flips it from miles to kms
