I'm sorry.... but I can't answer your question. I will forward this to a wonderful, international group of Audi enthusiasts, who should be able to come up with some kind of answer for you. BTW, this group is best explained by going to the "quattro list" web-site I have linked from my web-page.

Good luck.

Take care.
