I just wanted to hijack the thread as I picked up my RS6 PE in Mythos Black last week. Awesome spec, low mileage and only 20 months old. Currently sat on the drive with the RS4. Interesting to see Panther Black against Mythos Black. Not much in it from a distance but Panther Black really pops in the sunlight. Be gutted to see her go but the RS6 with the Akrapovic exhaust is something else!

Well, thanks for the welcome and here she is.
It’s the PE.
For some reason it has the black optics pack, but arrived with alu mirrors, when I thought they defaulted to black if you spec the black optics pack!
It also has the park assist where it steers into a space for you, and I never ordered that!
So I’m on the lookout for some black mirror covers🤣

Very frustrating running it in! 400 miles on the clock so far!

Ok, first question...
How do you reset the trip?
I don’t mean the long and short term on board computer, but the simple trip which is above the total mileage at the bottom of the display....

I don't think it looks very good in photos but think they look great in the flesh.

There is a button to the left of the dash display with 0.0 or something similar written on it. Probably hidden by the steering wheel.
