A4 date display format
Hi,
Anyone know how to change the date format on the dashboard? By default it goes like dd/mm/yyyy. I changed it to mm/dd/yyyy for a friend on his '05 A4 but forgot how to do it.
Thank you very much!

It is done on the trip computer - use the toggles on the wiper blade arm. Believe it is listed as date/time.

On the '08 A4 the trip computer is access by using the window wiper arm. There is a toggle on the tip of the washer arm that you can use to scroll between screen and under the arm is a reset button which you can use to change functions. Between these two buttons you can adjust the date/time settings and what is displayed on the computer - ie milage, average speed etc.

i have 1 (current trip) and 2 (continuous count) options on that, and the third button-press blanks the screen - never thought to check the clock when that happens...
EDIT - nope, that's not it. must be an upgrade over the B6 models...

Re: A4 date display format
Mine has 2 trip computers as well. When I press the reset button it goes from trip 1 to trip 2 and if I press reset again it goes to a new screen where I have 3 choices, "set", "check" and "turn off". The set option allows me to change the time, date, milage etc.
