Converting from KMH to MPH

Just bought a used 2003 cl type-s and it is in kilometers. Just wondering if anyone knows how to change this to MPH and reset the odometer and temperature readings. Any help would be great.

You can drive faster if it's in kilometers! just multiply kilometers by 0.621
j/k,
maybe it's in the manual, I don't remember but I can look if you need.
welcome.

If you have a Nav system, once you cross the border, the car will realize this and convert it all to MPH and the mileage to miles.

Read the manual, its in there. A really cool feature of this car and NAV system.

unless you have a digital cluster you can't change the number to MPH. the only way to change that is to replace the cluster

I'll ask the obvious question....Why is it in KM? Did you buy it in Canada? "Why leave America to go to America Junior?"

Call your local Acura dealer. You will have to get a new gauge cluster. They will hook you up.
