Distance Remaining

Post by AMDRS6 » Mon Nov 05, 2018 5:39 pm

Hi all, new member here. Picked up my RS6 PE Panther Black last week and we are starting to bond nicely. One question (and I have searched)

How do you display the distance remaining in the tank?

TIA

On the end of the indicator stalk there is a button - pressing this will tab across from Fuel/Digital Speed, Media, Telephone and SatNav... Top left corner of the Fuel/Digital speed tab is your distance remaining : )

The end of my indicator stalk turns the active lane assist on and off.
And I have no idea how to NOT show the miles remaining.... It is permanently on display no matter what option or screen I choose (better check this later but I could have sworn it was on all screens). But to change from trip computer screen to sat nav, phone, audio etc I press the left or right arrow buttons on the left hand side of the steering wheel.

Mike is correct... I was going from memory which is clearly shot to bits :drink:

It is displayed in top left of inner display, just to right of upper rev counter. You don't have to press anything to display it, it should be there already.

Yep, I just checked, I can't actually get rid of it regardless of what other info I have on the screen; It is permanently there.

From the "Questions you thought were too dumb to ask" thread on another forum:

Q: Ok I give up. Where do i find miles to empty calculation? 2018 S6. I've looked in the owners manual and in every page of the dis. If I missed it in the manual, what section is it sorted under?

A: isn't it top left

It would appear you are not alone. Can you see it now? :thumbs:

Thanks all, found it straight away.

I am 6’3” tall and the top of the steering wheel covers the top of the dash. Not a bad idea as I can’t see it dropping like a stone!

It is a case of hiding it in plain sight. Unfortunately, once you can see it, you can't unsee it.
