Digital Speedo in a KM/h Cluster?

[Dano516]

Hi all,

I know it is possible to have a digital speedometer in the gauge cluster, but my zhp is from canada and I am in the US, and I havent gone around to swapping in the correct cluster. Is it possible to have a digital speedometer in mph on my cluster? Or do I have to get that coded elsewhere?

Anything would be great, thanks!

The only digital speedo available on the E46 cluster is in km/h, and is something you have to enable every time you start the car.
Your best bet is to have your smartphone on a mount with an app on that displays speed. I recommend SpeedView (available for both iOS and Android).

Or use Waze?

I’m afraid I’ve gotten so used to using google maps by now, it just feels weird to change now hahah.

Waze is Google Maps, just an advanced design.

I’m only seeing an option to show speed limits, no live speedo !!

I’m only seeing an option to show speed limits, no live speedo !!It should be enabled by default as far as I know.
Check out the lower left hand corner in my screenshot. Mine is currently showing '--' because I'm sitting at my desk at work, not moving.

If it's not enabled, go into Settings > Navigation Settings. Under 'Driving Options' heading, enable "Speedometer".

These instructions are for Android. For iOS, I have no clue without having one of those devices in front of me. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190917/6c24b5c57e7c8bac04b58ac811fdc94d.jpg

Ahh yes, you have an android. My silly iPhone 7 is a bit lacking in everything I guess.

I just did a quick search - it appears Google hasn't released this feature for iOS devices yet. I think it's coming though...

Yeah, i guess it’s gonna have to be a separate app for now.
