Default New S6 V10 Owner

Hello everyone, I am the new owner of a S6 V10. Everything on it is good except the airbag light is on. condensation in my right tail light, otherwise that it's amazing. As of now, it has H&R coilovers and an APR ECU/Tune. I've always been a BMW/Mercedes guy but I got this audio instead. Cosmeticly I can't find anything that doesn't seem like it's cheap **** or a scam. I want to get a rear diffuser and front lip that's about it. Maybe new tails light idk. What else do you guys think I should do with the audio? Before y'all ask, yes the intake manifold was replaced recently. I'm trying to figure out where the AUX input is and I cant seem to be able to find it, could someone help me out lol? If you guys know any cool quirks or features please let me know. I want to learn as much about this car as I can.

Congrats on your acquisition 👍

What is the model year and approximate mileage?

Did you receive the service history?

Look in the glovebox, depending on year, you should have a cord on the left ide of the box. Mine has an old style 30 pin iPhone connector. I just leave an old iphone always hooked up to it and play my music that way.

As for the bag light, you'll need a scanner to read that and erase the code.

Has the engine been out for a timing job and cam girdle gaskets?

One suggestion is to pull the coil packs and inspect for oil accumulating in the spark plug wells especially if misfires develop. If oil is present in the wells then the cam girdle gaskets have likely not been replaced yet.

It will only connect your phone for phone calls only. No streaming of music. Thats why I have an old iPhone in the glovebox hooked up.

You can search this site as many have installed 3rd party BT devices, with some good success, some not.

Has anyone tried using a 30 pin to aux connector to play music through a modern iPhone? I have my old iPhone 12 laying around that I could use for playing music.
