I had a set of dunlop winter sport m2's on my 2000 s4, I just got some m3's on my 2004 s4. Both are great but honestly I think the m2's are better. Also going down one inch in rim size helps as you get a narrower contact patch.

Does anyoneknow if there is a hidden eq. on a bose symphony 2? I own a 2000 s4 which has a symphony 1. This system sounds way better than the newer version. Any suggestions? Also my 2000 s4 (57K) is for sale. It is mint tons of extra stuff. Any leads?

Uber S4 Cab...rookie questions by siriato
Nov 27, 2005 (2:17 am)

I am moving back to the (east coast)US in the spring after 4 years in London. I have searched the forum for advise on ordering the S4 Cab. I absolutely want the new body style (A6 nose) and every conceivable option. I am looking to build the "uber" S4. The Audi website seems limited in terms of a configurator (refer to Mini.com to see how it should be done...). Any advise on ordering this great car with all the bells & whistles? Many Thanks.

Is there going to be a new model in 2007 or the same as 2006? I am thinking about the S4 cabio. now, but want to know if I should wait.

The new model in 2007 will be the A4/S4 Cabriolet. They will be updated with the sedan's front fascia, revised rear lights and exhaust, new wheels, the new engines and an updated interior.
 
I'd wait for the 2009 A5 Cabriolet... I've seen pics- gorgeous!

Question about the 2007 S4 by witnessx

I know that for 2006, the torque split of the Quattro system was 40/60 on manual transmission cars and 50/50 for cars with the six speed automatic. Do all 2007 S4's have the 40/60 torque split, or is that feature reserved for manual trans cars only?

Would you NOT buy one of these cars if it were 50 50?
 
Why would you care about the torque split if you are interested in an auto anyway? Torsen is NOT a reactionary system it acts IN REAL TIME (to transfer torque IN ADVANCE of impending wheelspin to the end of the car that needs it the most.)
 
Indeed, I am wondering how often you will ever drive this car in such a fashion that you would actually notice if it were 50 50 or 40 60?
 
Me, I'd take the stick and I'd pray to the god of weight balance to balance the S4's weight about equally over its front and rear wheels. The 40 60 split, although certainly a desirable thing is, most of the time, irrelevant.
 
If you drive in competition on closed circuits a lot, well perhaps, perhaps, this is an issue.
 
Otherwise the S4 quattro is "anything you want it to be" for all intents and purposes.

I don't believe that's true. The only models that have gotten the new torque split so far were the Q7 and RS4- you'll have to wait for the next-gen modular products to see it spread across the range. It will revolutionize Audi, and just like how the RS4 trounced the M3, Audi will become as sporty as BMW- a milestone for August Horch.

It is true, the S4 has a 60% bias to the rear wheels. You can check that at the Audi website.

Debating trading in my 645ci convertible for an S4 cabriolet. Any opinions on how the two cars will differ, or what to do. Advice would be great. Thanks.
