HDC Screen is it the final software flash??

There is no final flash.

But it might be a rollout version.

Anyone know if the tyre size can be programmed in?

Speedo may be GPS linked? Just a guess

Unlikely, here in the UK you can in mountainous areas, rarely and not for long, enter a satellite blind spot and hence lose GPS and therefore speedo.

There is a setting where you can select left hand drive or right hand drive.

And set it to a proper unit of measure, MILES per hour

For even more confusion in Europe better ft/min

I don't think this is allowed, at least not as a single source.

No speed info in case of a GPS problem, dito in tunnels, avalanche-galleries, and sometimes in cities with skyscrapers and narrow roads.

Knots for me, please.

Isn't the GPS in/on the Gren on your phone?

Also, I'm hoping to install a HUD and I believe they run off the OBD port.

Does that move the steering wheel like on a unimog.

Why has no manufacturer taken up VarioPilot?

Do you prefer air speed or ground speed?

Thats a good question, it could quite possibly be on the vehicle itself, but we now won't have to wait long to find out.

 

[DCPU]

Positive. You can configure a lot of details & info display WITHIN many electronic instrument panels, but repositioning the whole readout is a no no. In Australia the vehicle had to meet Australian Design Regulations which would fix the panel in a certain location.

Isn't this just the former - reconfigure within?

The panel is fixed.

Of an unladen swallow?

Both are possible: HUDs use or the speed of your cell phone (therefore GPS) or - if you have it - the speed of the OBD port indeed (usually through bluetooth connection).

Yes HUD's generally have Bluetooth connection to a plug on the OBD2 socket

But why do they need the phone at all? I understand that it’s needed for navigation, track lists and messages. But all pure driving data should come via OBD, shouldn’t they?

I prefer the speed indication of the GPS of my phone. This is almost 100% correct. The speed indicator of the car itself (through the OBD) has a fault margin of around 5%.

Because I like to drive as fast as possible within the allowed speed limit + fault margin of the police (when it's safe to do so of course).
In Belgium, on the motorways/highway speed is limited to 120 km/h. It is known (appears sometimes in the press) that Police also has some fault tolerance. On the motorways you get a fine when you drive 129 km/h or higher!
Therefore I drive 127 or 128 km/h (with cruise control)!
(I know also the fault margins for other speed limits).

Many ( also the most) of them need a Cable to connect to OBD

I have read it, this one not.
