That is incorrect.  Currently generation Audi quattros (A4/A6/A8 and their
'S' counterparts) have a Torsen center, and EDL for the front and rear
axles (electronic differential lock, which is based on ABS).  The only
exception is the TT quattro and A3/S3 quattro (not available in the US),
which uses the Haldex (note spelling).
