Default Show speed on the DIS?

Is there a way to show the speed on the color DIS in a 2006 A6 C6 like in this video?

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Y2Qq6IKvGOE?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Y2Qq6IKvGOE?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

I have it my 08 but I also have the adaptive cruise control (ACC) and I think I read somewhere that you have to have ACC to get it. I might be wrong though.

on the bottom of the windshield wiper stalk is a button you need to push a few times and the center display will change.

I have that button but it only cycles between trip computer 1 & 2.

The other buttons on the wiper stalk cycle between the different display modes but there is no speed, only average speed, mileage to empty, current fuel economy, etc.

Maybe this is only in newer A6's?

I think this was the new add-on starting MY 2008. They changed the color to blue in 2009. I haven't heard of any methods to load this feature to pre 2008 models.

My 07 has it, so it's not 2008 & on. I'm assuming if you don't have it it's something a Vag-Com can turn on.

Okay, maybe it started with 2007.. I forget. My 2006 didn't have it and I didn't find it with Vag-com.
