Switching speedometer from MPH to KPH


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I've recently bought a 2014 IS 300h (Executive) , its an English Model and therefore the speedometer is in MPH. I'm wondering if there is any way to change the speedometer to KPH? I have used the settings function but this has only toggled the fuel consumption and ODO to Km. If anyone has a method to fix the speedo this please let me know. Many thanks

Regards,

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the info. Seems Bruno is having the same issue with his F-Sport Model. It may be the case that its only a dealer who can change this, and probably charge a fortune to do so. I'll keep searching around for info.

I believe it was more than just a configuration matter, and in fact a complete new instrument cluster in order to change it.

You are definitely right about it costing a fortune.

As yours is the Executive model, it has a physical dial for the speedometer. The dial to the left of this can vary its display between energy or engine revolutions. It's only on the sport model where the display is much more configurable and - on some of them at least - the speedometer can switch between miles and kilometers.

If you want to convert your car, you will need a new speedometer fascia (link) and somebody willing to take your dashboard apart to install it.
