Default Was this seriously an option?

Just wondering if the trip, current fuel mileage, average fuel mileage and so on was an option? My a6 doesn't seem to have this?

I guess the stupid things I figured this car would have it doesn't like memory seats Fuel mileage, etc.

I dont think it was an option. If you look at the screen in the gauge cluster and also at the end of the windshield wiper stick on the right side there are up and down clickers with a reset button under it. See if you have those...

Ya that's what I thought as well. When I drove/looked over the car I never check along with many other things as I was for sure they were standard after all it is an A6 ya know. So here is a poor shot of the end of my wiper stick so you can see what I mean.


For Crying out loud my 01.5 VW Passat had it.

In 2005 the trip computer was standard on the 4.2 and was part of the Convenience Package option on the 3.2, which included:

- Auto dimming and folding exterior mirror
- Auto dimming interior mirror with compass
- Memory for Driver seat and Exterior Mirrors
- HomeLink® 3 channel remote transmitter located in driver's sunvisor
- Trip Computer
- Storage Package

This is an 06' 3.2. Was it the same as the 05 year for options?

Also, is there away to add this with out a huge hassle?

I though it was part of the premium package. On the higher end models, the center display between the 2 gauges are high resolution LCD display as appose to a LED dot matrix diaplay.

Yep it was an option. I've seen a few that didn't have it. Yet they still had bose, xenons, auto lights, auto dimming mirrors, memory seats.

I can back that up, as I have an '06 with all that and no trip computer. Yeah, that's pretty weird, but no big deal to me.

I think they made it satndard in 08 or 07, and the center LCD displat between the 2 gauges comes with the tech package or the premium I believe.
