SOURCE: Watch DVD on Comand Aps Mercedes R320 CDI

Rui,

Not sure about the European version, but the American factory version will not play video DVD's while the vehicle is in motion, (Drivers area) due to laws against this. Also...just to cover the non-factory installs, most aftermarket indash DVD players have a safety switch which prevents the driver from playing DVD movies while driving the vehicle. The vehicle must be in park for the DVD player to play a movie.

Hope this helped.

SOURCE: Both speedometer & tachometer not working, both reading wrong.

There was a recent class action law suit settled with GM for this exact problem. You can google gm speedometer lawsuit and get lots of information. Unforutunately for most people I think the warranty was limited to 7 years and 70,000 miles. Which isn't a lot of miles for most people.

If you car isn't covered by the warranty there is a way to "reset" the speedometer.

You can turn the ignition slowly like you are going to start the engine. There is a very small "dead" space where you will see your guage lights go off.

What you want to do is cycle the ignition switch from off to that dead space. Each time you do it your stuck speedometer will move towards zero about 10 mph. So if its stuck on 40 you will have to cycle it at least 4 times.

At first you will probably actually hit the ignition and the engine will try to start.....just release it and try it again.

I know this because I have a 04 avalanche with 80,0000 miles and it has this problem about twice a month.

Does distance show kilometers or miles?

On a digital display the default in U.S. is miles. Refer to your owner's manual or call dealer if you need to change it. A km is .6 of a mile, so just drive about 10 blocks (around a mile). If the odometer registers around 1 unit more it's probably miles, if it says close to 2 then it's probably km.

Mc 2004 Envoy speedomiter reads in Km not mph ?

Guess.
Either the vehicle or the speedometer is from Canada, as is set up to run in that country.
Changing it will be a really big job, as you would have to take the dash apart, I think
If it were mine, I'd call a GMC dealer and ask them what it would cost to change it over.
If that were too expensive for you, you might consider finding a way to add MPH numbers to the plastic speedometer cover, like little stick on plastic numbers people buy at an office supply store.
Be blessed.

I was pushing the buttons looking at how much time till oil change and noticed my speedometer was now showing KM instead of mph? it is in metric or something? can not get it back to MPH and did not get a...

If I'm not mistaking on that model if you hold the trip/reset button while the odometer is on the miles ( not trip a or b) for a few seconds it should go back to mph. Let me know if this helps. Chevy's can be done a couple ways. But I think for yours this is it.

2002 toyota camary speedometer and odometer readings, on my 2002 camary LE my speedometer reads 70 mph but actualy i'm going around 67mph, and as for the odometer on meassured mile i checked on a 10 mile...

have you changed the tires or rims from the original size?? If so, your vehicle's ECU will need to be re-calibrated so that the computer will adapt to these changes.
