VW T6 2018: Top Speed & Performance

Could it be that the speed sensor on a T6 manufactured in 2018 is not connected to the engine CAN bus? I've found everything else (throttle pedal, brake, gear position for the automatic transmission, wheel speeds), but there's no trace of the speed sensor data.

Hello.

Why shouldn't it be found in CAN ID 0x1A0?
Byte 3, Int16.

Great ! Thank you very much! That makes sense! - I must have misunderstood something!

I also found it at address 0x5A0. Starting bit: 15, Length: 9 bits.

Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"lg" translates to "best regards" or "kindly regards" in English. It is a common abbreviation used at the end of emails and letters.

Thank you for the feedback!

Okay, I've finally found the engine speed value displayed on the dashboard within the CAN bus data. The annoying thing is that the value starts in the middle of a byte, which made it harder to find. Hopefully, this will save someone some time.

ID: 0x320, Start Bit: 46, Length: 10; divided by 3.11 = Displayed speed in km/h.
