Hi,

In some ROW versions, a maximum Speed Alert is pre-programmed as a requirement of the Importing Country, Dubai may be one of these.

This is beyond what the OBC can be programmed for by the Driver, and can only be accessed with the Dealer software. You may find that a local Dealer will not violate this requirement.

I would 1st check your owners manual and see if this is the OBC or mandated Speed Gong, then go from there. BTW, @Houston C4S - 120 KPH = 74.5 MPH, not 161-164MPH...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
