Can anyone tell me why my o8 a4 2.0t has the s-line badge in the grille when I'm guessing its not a true s-line? I bought the car from Carmax and no one there could explain it to me. Plus I'm def looking to get chipped to start off the mod journey. I've read the newbie guide but would like an honest answer from other b7 owners as to which one to go with.

 

The '08 A4s will all have the S-Line badge in the grille. For the 2008 model year, marking the last year the B7 A4 sedan/avant was produced, all models got the S-Line body package, including the front molding, side skirts, and integrated trunk spoiler. These models have the S-Line badge on the grille, but will have the standard A4 wheels, suspension, and interior trim. "Real" S-Line models will have the S-Line badge on the rear door, 18" wheels, S-Line suspension, and interior trim differences.

 

Thanks for the clarification on this.

 

almost correct. although, I believe S-line exterior package was a free option thats why there are so many of them, but you could have '08 without it.

Also my '08 S-line does have rear door badges and it's also an SE model which has SE 17'' BBS wheels
