Speedo on right screen 2018 488GTB

Ill have to double check but I dont think you can. I thought only information, radio etc were on the right side. I may be totally mistaken as I havent paid attention to this.

 

of course you can, just press and hold the volume knob of your soundsystem. you can turn it completely off this way, then the speedo wil appear.
you can also select wether you want a digital or analog speedo displayed. you can do this in the setup screen

 

I stand corrected. Thanks for the clarification.

 

Holding the central button on the right satellite (between "back" on the right and "main" on the right) should do the trick, you select to show digital or analog counter in the menu of the left TFT.
The right screen is multi purpose though, and for instance the navigation is always on the right screen - so if you use the navi map you cannot have the speedo on the right (because the nav cannot go to the left).
Fortunately my car seems to default to the speedometer, but I admit it is not intuitive at all.

 

What I have noticed about that setting is the phone doesn't connect if you put the speedometer over there.

 

Left screen is for vehicle settings, right screen for infotainment.

putting the speedo on the right will shut down the infotainment controls - therefore they added the digital speedo to the left screen (wasn't possible in the 458).

 

In any event , nice rig you got there bro. Congrats man and all the best, Kirk

 

Yeah, that is what I concluded but I like the bigger speedo on the right as it's easier to see and I like the gauges on the left. That's how I mostly drive and I just ignore the phone when someone calls.

 

You can have the phone connected with the speedo on the right, you cannot configure it with the speedo on the right but after it's done it can work (works on my car anyway).

 

How do you get the phone to connect if you have the speedo on the right?

 

I will have to check, but IIRC once the bluetooth has been configured to connect the phone, it can connect automatically and work (i.e. receive calls, you need the right screen to place calls) with the speedo displayed.

 

I use it this way all the time.

You press and hold Options View for a few seconds, and it comes up. I use my left screen for the temperature gauges to know when the car is warmed up.

The Bluetooth is weird this way though — I often have to get out of Options View, go to media, my music starts, and then press Options view again. I asked the dealership about it and they said there was no problem, so it’s a minor annoyance but part of my routine while I’m backing out of my garage.

I love the speedo on the right and the VDA info on the left.

 

It maxxes out around 180-190. Much lower than my previous ICE cars, but I’ve been in Teslas for a while so I’m a bit out of the game. It’s about a 10 min drive to backroads for me, and by the time I’m 3/4ths of the way there I’m good to go. I just enjoy having the gauges up as I start to push it.

 

Congratulations on your new ride!
