My next question would be will a front wheel drive clutch fit into my quatro. I've read and heard that they are the same clutch, and I have read and heard that they are different. Does anyone have any correct information.? It is an 01 Audi a4 1.8 turbo. Again my question is will a clutch from a front wheel drive work in an all wheel drive. I only ask because of the price difference.

FWD clutches have a different spline count. They are physically the same size, but will not spline to the input shaft.

Clutch talk...
They are not the same.. more research has told me the transverse mounted 1.8 T has a 28 spline friction disc vs a 23 spline friction disc.

At least with the B5 A4, FWD and Quattro share the same clutch and flywheel.
