You'll probably need VCDS to change it. Think it's actually in the instrument settings for country.

it should be a setting, the same disk and software is used throughout Europe. If you want to change to Norwegian it may need a new disk that supports your language but English should be no problem.

If you are in lets say radio mode, press "setup" and then the button up right for the rotary button. The first line that appears on the screen should be menu languages.

Though pretty sure that will reset itself as it's just MMI coding, at least gets you home though
