you need to fit a stalk with a button and code it via VCDS

hey there, i also need to change the display but i dont have a manual,, i live in lebanon and i shipped it from america,, i need to put the speedoo in kms ,, any help??and also i drove my new audi a4 2.0T quattro 6m 2006 model, and i drove my cousin's 2008 GTI with an exhausht system upgrade, in the gti i could drive in the 6th gear up to a gill with a speed of 40mph, on the audi u';d have to put at least 4th gear, and i wouldnt be as fast as the gti,, on the internet you guys say that the longitudinal eengine of the 2.0T has 40tq + than the gti's engine ,, so they should both go up on 6th gear up a hill even if the a4 is heavier with the extra torque, but i just cant see where the extra torque is going!!! And the gti feels way faster than the audi,, ilike my a4 more, but it sucks to get beaten by a gti, you know wht i mean? can you help me or tell me smth about this??

Did you copy and paste this and post in multiple threads?

The GTI isn't AWD and is significantly lighter. How many different versions of the same answer would you like?
