Telling if my car is quattro

RE: Telling if my car is quattro
I have front trac, and engine orientation is the same as quattro.. No question about it.
But its pretty simple, just look under the car for the axles... Any douche bag can recognize axles/rear differential-or lack there of- to determine what kind of drive train it is... (refering to the mechanic)

RE: Telling if my car is quattro
Sigh...ok thanks guys...I'm just trying to find some ray of hope that it could in fact be Quattro...going from thinking you are driving a Quattro to a FWD is pretty depressing...and its not like I didnt have the car inspected before I bought it. I took it to my mechanic to make sure that everything was working fine, but I mean unless you have some reason to believe it wasn't Quattro and if it has the badges, why would you think to check for something like that? But Idunno I guess something like that seems like something a mechanic should catch, but I guess he was looking for flaws rather than classifying the drivetrain. Meh I dunno I guess thats a ligitamate thing to check, I'm just a stupid kid that doesn't know much about cars...just depressed to know that I know have a FWD instead of Quattro.

RE: Telling if my car is quattro
mine has a quattro badge inside the car next to the radio in the trim. im pretty sure it says quattro, i dont remember
people would have to go through a lot of work to put a badge in the trim on the inside of a car

Yeah, the quattro badge on the dash trim is sunk in. Its probably quattro, unless the seller went to very extreme measures to trick you.
But on the same hand, the guy doing the swap does have both cars side by side to compare, so maybe someone did rip ya.
