From the literature and web site the 2009 A4 sounds like the uses a T3 Torsen center differential. I called Audi of America to see if the latest A4 had a Torsen center differential and they said it did not. They did confirm that my B5 platform Avant does have a Torsen. They could not tell me they type of differential now being used in the latest A4. Does anyone have information on the center differential setup?
Thanks.

Anybody going to consider the Acura TL SH-AWD 6MT? It kicked butt on S4 (B7) and 335i - Bada Bing 2008-09-29 11:09:33 (488 views)

Who in their right mind would want to be seen in such an ugly monstrosity? The end. - SFV A4 2008-09-30 00:03:46 (42 views)

Funny how the 335i was ranked behind the S4. Some people here thought it's the king - justhacking 2008-09-29 19:54:15 (60 views)

The Acura TL SH-AWD nose looks like a platypus, and is too large - m444 2008-09-29 12:10:14 (107 views)

When I first saw the pictures of the 2010 TL I honestly thought they were a spoof. - Bob58 2008-09-29 11:58:58 (122 views)

Can you elaborate why SH-AWD fails in bad weather? Would think it's the opposite. - Mobilehavoc 2008-09-29 12:10:44 (87 views)

Its a reactive system. That uses clutches - AofC_RR 2008-09-29 12:31:58 (162 views)

this TL, ugliness aside, is a beast. A few mods and it'll make for a great impromptu track toy - crespo 2008-09-29 11:24:10 (123 views)

Yes, the car, engine, SH-AWD, technology is superb. But the front grille/styling kills it. - Mobilehavoc 2008-09-29 11:12:50 (77 views)
