Hi guys (and gals):beerchug:
Forum newbie so be gentle!
Just bought my first A6 since I gave back my 142k company A6 in 1998. Been a BMW man since, but decided on a change and bought a 1998 2.4 A6 Avant. Generally delighted with the Avant, which is spacious, smooth, and in good nick for its age.
There are only two minor issues which some advice might help. Firstly the in dash information display seems a bit "tired" with the illumination only being bright in the centre of the display, with the edges being much darker, and difficult to read. Can the display be changed or is it integrated with the instrument binnacle.
The other problem is with the auto dimming mirror, which has a darker ellise within the mirror all the time, and on touching the mirror it is warm to the touch. It to probably needs to be replaced, but once again any advice appreciated.
Cheers
Laurie
