Yes. Just push the little button/pin on the dash cluster. The one on the left. Opposite the trip odometer reset.

There's a magical black stick on the top left of your gauges cluster, press down on it.

You are incorrect, the stick have a circumference of 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375 10582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706 79821480865132823066470938446095505822317253594081 28481117450284102701938521105559644622948954930381 96442881097566593344612847564823378678316527120190 91456485669234603486104543266482133936072602491412 73724587006606315588174881520920962829254091715364 36789259036001133053054882046652138414695194151160 9 so you multiply that by how long the stick is.
