Hi there everyone I'm looking to get a meter for my new superb preferably digitax the meter I have the now is a sheriff wayfare but the wayfare is quite big and there isn't a lot of room on the superbs dash, is the F1 plus or the f2 digitax better

Have you tried one of these?

Wouldn't fancy changing the mirrors just a normal meter

We have just had a mirror meter fitted to our new car. It fits over the existing mirror.

Grandad,

Reson I want a digitax is because the digitax agent in Clydebank is very good from what I have heard from local taxi drivers majority of them have digitax, I am currently using a sheriff wayfare but in the superbs the dash has to be ripped out to fit a pulse wire and they do an exceptionally well job of it from all the reviews I've seen so that's why I want to go to digitax I have been looking around and I think a digitax f2 is what I'll be using

If you want the digitax check out eBay do a search "digitax meter" there are a few for sale...

Well phoned up digitax today and got a meter and its getting fitted at one of there offices in Clydebank, getting a f2 and the guy said on the day I can decide where the meter goes, he says it will take 2 hours to fit the pulse wire and fit the meter calibrate it test drive and fit the data head and radio plus the arial getting a brand new meter by the way and it is getting fitted on the 21st the day I get the car

still has to be fitted, calibrated and the meter set to a tariff

plus a new one fitted has a warranty, all for £200 (ish), at least they dont have to calibrated regular like a tachograph

our LA charges £35 for the hackney meter test

arent the radio+data the property (and responsibility) of your base boss to fit? (i.e. not the meter fitters), and not many factory agents want to sell 2nd hand meters as the profits not in them

The place I work for fit it for the first time but I'll get the digitax man to do it a lot of the times the fitter and the base isn't in and I'm not waiting around for him digitax are more than happy to fit the lot for me and that does me just need to find someone to uninstall all the wiring for the equipment in my current car

The superb 1.9 doesnt need any additional 'pulse wire' or better known as a canbus.

Access to all electrics via glove box which takes two minutes to remove.

I'm getting a 1.6 TDI they stopped making the 1.9 TDI engine in 2010 and the 2.0 and 1.6 diesels are all you get on the superbs now maybe different wiring
