Hey guys,

I need help with my US Imported Subaru Outback 2008 2.5i.

My goal is to convert the readings of the fuel consumption and the outside temperature display from Imperial to Metric units.

I intend to follow this guide:
https://romraider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=19484

I have purchased the eeprom reader already.

I know from a local Subaru Forum that once I read the code from the eeprom I need to look for
US Units
09 8D 7B 00

and change to EU Units
0A 0D F8 04

However the member in the Subaru local forum no longer responds and I cannot get his guidance at this time.

I am not sure if I should read the BIU or the ECU chip to get to these readings.

Could anyone help?

Thanks

i'd be assuming its the BIU you want to read in order to change its displayed values - just make sure and save your original file before you go adjusting it in case there's more too it than first expected.

It seems like the readings of the trip computer are taken from the ECU, not the BIU, as there is no such data 09 8D 7B 00 in the BIU.

Here is what I was able to read: the chip is A01A
