CANchecked MFD32 Gen2 for VW Polo MK5 6R (vehicle-specific vent display)

The CANchecked MFD32 Gen2 replaces the factory air vent with an integrated data display while retaining airflow via the vehicle-specific bezel. It’s designed for straightforward installation, with illustrated instructions available for many variants, so you can fit it without a workshop.

Key features

• Vehicle-specific integration with continued vent airflow
• CAN Bus readout with in-depth vehicle data (manufacturer-level style data access)
• Gear display via CAN Bus or calculated from speed and RPM
• Touchscreen control with swipe navigation
• Custom pages, images, and start animation support
• Up to 4 analog inputs plus direct ethanol sensor input
• CAN switching: use the display as a keypad and send custom CAN messages
• Configurable alarms (e.g. warning on high exhaust gas temperature above 900°C)
• Data logging to internal SD card
• Integrated performance meter (0–100, 100–200, 0–200)
• DTC read/clear for engine ECU, transmission, ABS, and all-wheel drive*
• Automatic dimming with the instrument panel*

*Not available on all protocols.

Pages and display layouts

• Delivered with predefined sample pages
• Create your own pages (up to 10)
• 20 widget types (e.g. sensor value, analogue pointer, YT diagram, speed bar, round display, vertical/horizontal bar)
• Drag-and-drop positioning and scalable widget sizing
• Fully adjustable widget colors
• Up to 64 widgets per page

Display setup and configuration

Using CANchecked DSS, you can customize pages, download and view logs with the integrated log viewer, use the built-in CAN logger, and edit sensors via the TRI Editor (including naming and warning min/max values for CAN Bus and internal sensors).

Supported data and protocols

The display supports CAN Bus data query (UDS, TP2, manufacturer-specific protocols) and K-Line (ISO 9141). It ships with predefined TRI/TRX files that define the sensors queried; these vary by engine. If values are missing, they can be added later.

Example supported values

Temperatures

• Exhaust temperature, coolant temperature, oil temperature, intake temperature, outside temperature, gasoline temperature, DSG temperature

Pressures

• Boost pressure, ambient pressure, fuel pressure (pre-feed pump), rail pressure (actual/target)

Lambda / mixture

• Lambda value, injection time, short-term lambda adjustment, long-term lambda adjustment

Other

• RPM, air mass, vehicle speed, throttle angle, total ignition angle, ignition angle retraction per cylinder, N75 timing (%), terminal 30 voltage, torque, gear, diesel-specific values

Connections and expansion

Four analog inputs support linear 0–5V and NTC sensors. CANchecked in-house sensors are stored in the TRI/TRX files by default and only need to be connected:

• AIN1: Temperature sensor (NTC01)
• AIN2: Type K exhaust gas temperature converter (TCC01)
• AIN3: Pressure sensor 0–10 bar (FLP01)
• AIN4: Boost pressure sensor 0–5.5 bar absolute (BST01)

You can also connect an external 8-LED shift light, configurable directly from the display (colors and speed limits). An ethanol sensor can be connected directly; a 10K pull-up resistor between 5V and signal is required to view and log ethanol content and temperature.

Advanced functions

• Math channels for calculated values
• User table for generating additional sensors with 2D or 3D maps
