Has anyone found the hidden cluster features yet?

There are always hidden items or information about the car hidden away in the instrument cluster computer, wondering if anyone has found them and how to get to them? Example on a 09 charger you can find out how many hours are on your motor.

in the '11 - '13 MY, it lists engine hours, coolant temp., oil temp., ect in the EVIC

I am assuming you can find all the same info with the new '14 display.

Was wondering the same thing. On BMW's you can "code" them using the OBD port and unlock dozens of features that are turned off at the factory. Windows up and down with key fob, seatbelt chime off, etc, etc..

Not sure if this is what you are look for, but there is a host of extra information on the 8.4" Touchscreen.

Here are a few key areas to explore:
Engineering Menu: Hold the driver side temp buttons (Red and Blue) for 5 seconds. Don't make any changes unless you know what you are doing. Hit X to cancel
Dealer Menu: Hold the driver side temp buttons and front defrost button for 5 seconds. Again, don't make changes unless you know what you are doing.
Elevation and GPS coordinates of your current location: In the navigation map, press the current street name listed near the bottom and then hit the GPS button that pops up. It will show your current elevation, coordinates, and strength/number of satellites it is receiving.

I think engine hours is listed in there somewhere.

I think if you hit the V.R. button and say "Go Go Gadget", then command, it will do just about anything!
