Can I change my Volvo V40's speedometer?

I have a Volvo V40 D3 Pro Nav with Xenium Pack and Intellisafe Pro. Can the mph on the speedometer be easily changed to km/h or is it stuck on mph forever?

Hi John,

If it’s a V40 with the digital dashboard, just use the rotating ‘collar’ switch and the ‘READ’ button on the end of the right-hand column stalk. This will bring you into the menu system and there should be an option in there to switch the display from Imperial to Metric units. Have a check of the owner's manual if you get stuck, although apparently there is some issue with older model V40s being stuck on one reading or the other. If you can’t work it out at home, the best thing is to bring it into the dealer and ask for a little help.
