I swapped the engine temp with battery since there is already an analog in the display.

My favorite as I can see all the data I care about excepting tire pressures.

No; you really don't want me to.

Maybe in a PM, but not on an open Forum thread.

I would like to run that set up also but I have always said the pocket gauges are not as pronounced as the tach or the analog gauges due to brightness and don't really match the flow to me.

Only the boost gauge.

Otherwise, no, you can find that display. I'll get out to the car later to find out how to select it, and will let you know. Unless someone beats me to it.

This should get you where you want to be.

From your current display (mine is shown below in Pic #1), using the left/right-up/down arrow buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, press left to bring up the menu shown in Pic #2, and then press down to highlight settings. Then press select in the middle of the l/r-u/d buttons, then press the right arrow to bring up the selections shown in Pic #3 (I have Tour selected).

From there, use the u/d arrows to select the display mode that you want. I've shown Sport mode in Pic #4 and Track mode in Pic #5. Our car is a 2015; later model years (not sure which, exactly) display additional info on Track mode, though they still have the large bar graph tachometer.

When you have the display you want, use the left arrow to backtrack your steps.

This was a very interesting post...and thanks to everyone for the details. When I bought my 2019 six years ago I read the owners manual from cover to cover, but having never owned a vehicle with a configurable dash, this feature totally slipped through the cracks. I always found the oil pressure/oil temp to be redundant, so have switched to the battery volt meter on the one side now.

Thanks to Catfish4818 for posting the step by step photos...I found that the menus were different on the 2019...below are the options in Sport mode.

As I was going through the options, there was one named 'Horsepower'. Does anyone know what this one shows exactly? Dynamic HP level you're using as you drive?

i’d like to set something up like this for mine for when I do the big track. I will have to check it out. For auto cross, though, it’s all about the tire pressures, so that’s what I run. On the big track, it’s not like you can pull over to the side of the road and change your pressures lol

I find myself using the Tour layout and with the speedometer value in the center I NEVER seem to look anywhere else except the gas gauge needle. Half the time I forget there is an analog speedo on the left side.

Mine is Sport mode (locked to that), my pocket gauges are Oil Temp (Left) and Oil Pressure (Right), my center display is the one that shows DTE and instant fuel economy.

I have Bat Voltage on my Radar Detector.
