Hi all, so I have a GLA 200d 2016, now I did go to the Merc dealership and two young lady’s came out and had a mess (stop it, your making up your own jokes) would help if I tell you what the issues is, as you look at the speedo above in the left there’s (on mine anyway) a KM speedo, now I’ve seen on You-Tube that some show the outside temperature, instead of a KM speedo..any idea if the UK speck cars will show that, as I said the dealership sent out two young lady’s, but I don’t think they really knew if it did or how to do it, if it did..so anyone have any idea?

I think something like this has cropped up before, and it's along the lines that UK spec cars have to be able to show MPH and KPH so they can't do the temperature but I may have got that wrong!

That’s right mate. It’s a legal mandate that cars in the UK show KPH as well as MPH.

Even on my 20 year old Mercedes you can show the outside temperature as well as the speed so I would thing that there is a setting in there somewhere.

The outside temp displays only once on start-up and on the GLA display module. Cars have to show bothe Km and mph..
