My copy of the Bentley is the old one-volume version and doesn't have
the part you describe.  However, even if your Bentley does describe a
rear diff with Torsen, it would really be extraneous info.  That unit
would only have been used on an Audi V8.  No Audi 100q/200q that I know of
came equipped from the factory with a rear Torsen diff.
