darryl666 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi I have an old LHD A4 Avant 1.8T with automatic gearbox (originally German registered) which I want to register in the UK. In order to do so I need the speedo to show MPH. I think the simple solution will be to replace the instrument cluster. The part number on the existing cluster is 8D0 919 861 C. I assume this denotes a unit with a speedometer displaying KPH. Does anyone know how I can find out what the equivalent part number for a unit with a speedo displaying MPH would be? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hi Darryl, I assume you have tried your local stealership as aside from being a bit pricey they would probably give you the part number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darryl666 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hi James Thanks for your response. I and the car are currently in Spain. I live in the Isle of Man and there is no Audi dealer there. I have sent an email to Audi UK quoting the existing LHD instrument cluster code and asking what the RHD equivalent would be but as yet have had no response. If this is doable then the plan would be to get one from a breakers yard. I'll give Audi UK a day or so then chase them up. I'll get there eventually!

James Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I was thinking a breakers yard but I guess you would need to be careful with mileage/kilometres driven as the unit from the breakers yard would clearly be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darryl666 Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 The more I have looked into this, it seems that the way to go is to change the speedo fascia for one showing MPH. That way the odometer is correct and no re-programming is necessary. (I never had these problems with my Morris Minor!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I guess that seems the most simple way providing it's easy to take it apart without breaking it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
