R32 dials on 1.9tdi

[harryralston]

Hi everyone ive just bought some r32 dials off ebay for 75 pounds and i am now wanting to put them in my 04 1.9tdi. is this possible and if so is there anyone near sheffield that could do it? thanks

it can be done on one provision,

Have a look at your part number of your cluster.
Then have a look at the cluster number you bought.
Basically all the numbers need to be about the same, but the last three digits has to be only 10 difference.

Ie, 368 C will become 378 C

Then it can be fitted.

As your car is an 04, it will be easy to do with Vag-Commander. What is the part number of the R32 Clocks?  if they end 960, 970, 961, 971, 962 & 972

Then Darren (MortyGTtdi) will be the man to see.

If they end with 3 or 4 then you will need to send them of to a company like shark performance for them to read the pin and reset the mileage

You do realise it isn't going to make your 1.9d suddenly able to do 6750RPM

Or sound like a throbbing V6.

Do the clocks not just read the normal rpm (although the dash obviously is clocked to more)?? i was thinking of doing this to mine too, but was unsure of what part numbers were compatible with each vehicle!!!

I'd imagine things have moved on since I last wired in a rev counter, there'll be some sort of witchcraft in the clocks and a crank position sensor - so I'd imagine it'll read correctly.

I think Darren has R32 clocks in his GT and I seem to remember him saying they read the correct rpm.

They will read the correct rpm but obviously you won't be able to rev the full range

Ya can try but it doesn't sound good

They work fine, its all electronic now so reads info from ECU and Canbus.
