I just got an A6 with the computer, as a companion to my A4 without. I thought I was missing something w/o the computer - NOT! Useless gadget. The only useful info is outside temp, and you get that anyway.

My $.02 worth - skip the computer and put it towards gas for all the driving you'll be doing!

I think the computer is cute, but not very accurate. MPH and MPG is very inconsitent in how it is caluculated. Though, worth the $200 just for the radio info that comes on screen. Other than that, a simple gadget that is not that good.

there are a bunch of not so easily apparent things that the trip gives u.
The aforementioned fluid almost empty warning
Lights out self test.

Its not just a MPG display.
