Default A4 Quattro?

recently looking for car insurance. when i type in my license plate number I have noticed some sites come back saying i have a A4 quattro. I didn't think I have, I just thought mine was a A4 TDI SE 130. how would i know the difference?

Thanks

There should be a badge that says "quattro" somewhere on the trim above the glove compartment. There's also usually a badge on the trunk. And also your car would kick *** in snow.

If you have drive axles at the rear wheels and a propshaft from the transmission to a diff in the back, it's Quattro.

If there's a badge right in front of your face that says Quattro above your glove box that you look at every time you get in your car or make a right turn everyday.

Then I guess I'm an idiot for telling you straight up what to look for in my post above. Did you skip that or do you not know what the **** I'm talking about with drive axles in the back of the car?

I'll spell it out. It's either Quattro or front drive. All of these cars have front drive axles. If you also have rear axles and a propshaft running to a rear diff, that means you also have rear drive on your car, and that plus the front drive means all wheel drive - Quattro.
