This might seem stupid but how can I know if an A4 b5 is quattro or FWD? I don't want to start a discussion on the difference between the two since its very 'technical' I just want to know how to identify a quattro without the badges.

 

Look under the back end of the car. If there is a set of axles back there, it's Quattro.

 

also there is a badge on the dash trim line which probably wasnt removed

 

...lol

 

rear drive axles would be one way, taking a corner at 10mph faster than comfortable and then punching it just past the apex would be another.

 

Quattro is the ****! I love my B5

 

jack the car up all the way off the ground and drive if all 4 wheels more its awd haha probably not the safest way lol. like said just check to see of there are axles in the back

 

A wise man once told me "an Audi with FWD, is nothing more than a glorified VW". Drive axles and badges.

 

^^^dont hate on the fwd.....plus they put down more power than you, that AWD looses power throughout the drive train.

people also should not consider debadged and upgrade.....kinda silly when i see people going "my ***** debadged its so mean"
mines debadged but u dont see me jumpin for joy about it, 2 min. with googone that was it

 

Thanks everyone! Since i'm a noob to Audi, can anyone take a picture of the axle back so I know how it looks like?
