Default Questions Re 2002 S8

I'm a first time Audi guy and new to Quattro. When I turn the steering wheel almost to the locking point on either side and accelerate, there is a vibration emanating through the steering wheel. Is this a normal "feature" of Quattro?

Thanks in advance.

Default Very normal. My A8 does the same thing.

Default Feature- No, but cause and effect-YES.

I had this same question about a year ago and SKIWI did an incredible job answering the technical question of what is going on that we notice this occurence. Do a search back on my posts and you will find the explanation.

Relax-it is OK.

I have a 2001 S8, I had to go out just now and try it, and no, mine doesn't do it.
