Its luck of the draw, like the tires. I know people with early 2000's with them, people with late 2000's, someone with a 2001.5 with them, but my 2001.5 doesn't. My 2000 didn't either.

Also suspension change - aluminum uprights (2000) changed to steel in 2001. - AlanL 2002-05-08 16:33:15 (2364 views)

That is correct also...add to the list - cpayne 2002-05-08 16:40:16 (1715 views)

There's more changes 2001 to 2001.5 than from 2000 to 2001... - George @ BostonAudi 2002-05-08 16:23:00 (3421 views)

Aluminum vs steel isn't year-dependant... - George @ BostonAudi 2002-05-09 02:35:07 (1444 views)

Thats right...2001.5 I forgot about that Rev...but I think "9/00" was when 2001.5 started - cpayne 2002-05-08 16:32:42 (1755 views)

Don't know... Maybe. Easy to tell -- new badge, you have a 2001.5 - George @ BostonAudi 2002-05-08 16:54:53 (1402 views)

What's the F-hose do? - signal15 2002-05-08 16:10:40 (1808 views)

Leak and possibly lead to turbo failure if left unchecked. - DarinS4Turbo 2002-05-08 16:18:33 (1929 views)

LOL! - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:24:25 (919 views)

No. My build date is 9/00, but the car is 2001. F-hose. Revised TBB clamps. Pirelli tires - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:06:59 (1270 views)

Old badge or new badge? From what I've seen, all old badge 2001s have the F hose - DarinS4Turbo 2002-05-08 16:15:30 (1428 views)

yup, old badge here and f-hose - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:20:57 (983 views)

Of course there "may" be variances around 9/00...as I have a 9/00 Build also - cpayne 2002-05-08 16:10:35 (1132 views)

Yup, same here 9/00 build, new badges, no F-Hose, Pirelli Tires, new TBB, Hitachi MAF, steel.... - gk1 2002-05-13 12:07:36 (1026 views)

and my car has an old badge - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:19:38 (913 views)

9/00 Build eh? Wow..just shows the variances on the assembly line - cpayne 2002-05-08 16:39:29 (751 views)

Same here, new badges, no F-hose, Pirelli tires. One weird thing though... - S4 TTime 2002-05-08 16:18:19 (1602 views)

I'm sorry. I thought you were mixing differences between 2001 and 2000 and build dates :) - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:14:04 (773 views)

What's the difference with the revised turbos? - signal15 2002-05-08 16:12:09 (1401 views)

i believe there was an oil line change to larger ones - Mr. Piggie(mike01s4) 2002-05-08 16:13:00 (1160 views)

more alcantara in back, shiny side mirrors - golem 2002-05-08 16:05:10 (1191 views)

2001 has ESP. 2000 doesn't - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 15:58:02 (1237 views)

I'm a 2001 and i have ESP - Mr. Piggie(mike01s4) 2002-05-08 16:00:23 (1290 views)

We are talking about Electronic Stability Program, not - MichaelTM 2002-05-08 16:05:06 (2003 views)
