    TD5 speedo disassembly? (Defender)

    Does anyone know how I can get the front "glass" off a TD5 speedo so I can work on the dial, and then reassemble it properly?

    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    It's doable if you remove the intrument pack then you can separate the PCB and dials from the casing with the ''screen''

    A follow up question - the km/h text on the dial - does anyone know exactly what height the characters themselves are?

    Unfortunately not... but once you are there it'll come to you cos it's not very complicated

    As another question re TD5 speedo - is it possible to change the odometer setting (incrasing it, not rolling it back)

    The odometer reading can be sync'd with the mileage stored in the BCU if that's higher so if you replace the instrument pack with a lower mileage one this will ''adopt'' the higher mileage stored in the BCU, i dont know other way to increase the odometer reading

    Vlad has another post about upgrading the tdi warning light to TD5, assumes he must be doing the same with speedo.
