Ive got the chance of getting highline clocks from a 60 plated Scirocco 2.0 TDI, They are the later mk6 Golf style dials, so I assume them to be highline ones anyway, and they are from a high spec one with climate, armrest with MDI built into it etc.
Anyway being diesel clocks they go up to 6k rpm limit with the redline between 5 and 6k, and they go upto 180mph on the speedo dial.
My Jetta currently has the midline clocks mk5 style, with a 6k rpm limit, however my redline is from 4.5k to 6k, and my clocks only go up to 160mph, will I have any issues with compatibility fitting these and will they read the correct rpm and speed when fitted despite having a shorter redline and 20mph extra on the dials to fit in thus making the grading different?
Lastly, how do I go about getting the new dials to show my current mileage from my old clocks? Ive heard VW dealer cant do it unless they are new clocks, can anyone with a proper Vag-Com do it? Because my garage I use for repairs is a VW/Audi independent specialist whos 25years experience working within main dealers and can do cruise retrofits, MFSW and steering wheel controller upgrades and so on and says he has a Vag-com for coding all that stuff, is that all that's required or do the likes of Eddie-NL and so on have some special tools for coding in mileage?
