No temterature gauge really irritates me>>>>

I think it's efficient not to have a temperature gauge at the Amarok when there is space in the display. VW blame when the car has
on-board computer, it is not possible to have temperature gauges simultaneously. I think this is a very important gauge of a vehicle
that should be in everyone regardless of equipment.

What to do?

I bought an OBD scanner with a function that allows that I choose to show the gauges and features I am interested in. At the same
time, I can check the fault codes at the vehicle easily when I want. Quick and easy connection at the OBD connector.

Nice, a proper gauge.

Yes a temperature gauge is handy but not a must IMO.

Wanna hear silly? When a cell phone call comes in, and is handled by the 2013 GMC Sierra hands-free Bluetooth system, the digital clock disappears, and the display displays . . . an icon showing there is a phone call.

So if a client asks me to rush over, and I do not know the time and am not wearing a watch, can't give the client or friend or whatever an accurate time of arrival.

Same designer, maybe?

Hey, is that the bright yellow van with the nice suspension?

Very nice.

I use a ScanGuage ODBII Trip Computer in my truck and generally watch the fuel economy meter. But altering my driving habits a bit I am eeking out about 15-20% better fuel economy from that gauge.

I bought this in 2005 and over nearly 200,000 miles, it has paid for the device many times over just in fuel saving alone.
