Hey everyone. Today, I think I finally got over losing my 93 100s to a red
light runner a month ago. Went and looked at a 95 S6 today and fell in love.
Gorgeous, immaculate red exterior and an equally beautiful black leather
interior. No major mechanical problems that I could see, except that its due
for a timing belt change. Much much faster than my old 100. So I bought it.
The guy wanted 8500, which to me seemed really reasonable considering I
haven't seen S6's for less than 10k anywhere. 119k rural miles and it's a
95.5 model too, with a 3 spoke steering wheel and no diff locker button.
While I wait a few days to gather up the money, I had a couple questions:
first, the dash illumination seemed a little dim. Tried adjusting it with
the rotary knob but it still seems a little dim. Common problem with an easy
fix? Second, the trip computer doesnt seem to be lit up on the dash. My 100s
didnt even have one so I don't know how to make it appear again. Otherwise,
it looks to be in tip top shape. Out of curiosity, can anyone run Carfax on
the vin for me? It's wauka84a35n121566. I'm pretty excited, seeing as how
its my first quattro and first S car! Thanks,

Rokas
