Hi everyone

I just got my 2015 Mini today - base model with the essentials package. I love it, however having played around with it a bit I have a question about the speedometer. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to display the digital kph reading on the instrument cluster - is there even one?! I can't imagine this kind of car would NOT have this option! Have tried pressing the little button on the end of the left stick but it only provides me one option for the engine...other than that I can't change the display at all. Not the time, not the temp, not anything! Anybody know what I'm doing wrong??

Has it got the "on board computer" option in the first place. I had a loan car and it didn't have that option. However I am sure if you go in setings you could see if those options are disabled. For kmph, go in settings and under units change mph to kmph.

Wow I didn't even realise it was an option...I would have thought most new cars, especially Mini, would have them automatically. Guess I don't have it then! That sucks.

Are you sure? I thought the on board computer was standard on the f56?

The OP does have the on board computer, he has the button on the indicator stalk. Try playing with the settings to try to enable it. If this doesn't work, perhaps you need software reloaded - speak to your dealer.

Yup! I've played around with the stalk and it only shows engine image & doesn't shuffle through the different options such as speed. Really sucks because I'm so use to looking down at the digital speed going to look in to having it installed with the code mentioned above, if not looks like I'll be using my nav!

OP, more info is needed. What year/model MINI do you have? What country are you from?

2015 f56, just standard base model 3 door. I live in Canada

if it is there you go into the menu, vehicle settings, cluster display then tick every option-that way you get a scrolling (when you press the end button left stalk) from memory so not order correct, of date, temp, range let, mpg , instant mpg, average speed and actual speed-annoys me-huge digits-look cheap! )Glad i have my head up display!

I have tried what you suggested and I don't have the "cluster display" option in my settings. It must be a country based thing because as others have said its standard in UK models - I'm in Canada, so perhaps different here ? Either way, I am going to speak with someone at Mini and see if a) I'm doing something wrong, b) there's something wrong with the car itself, or c) it's an add on

That sucks! Why do we Canadians miss out
I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but I actually realised my left indicator stalk says "BC" on it, for ON BOARD COMPUTER! Could it be that there's somthing wrong with it and that's why it's not working, or is it just there to tease me?
