>I'm getting the sense that nobody really knows how quattro works or 
what settings do what.  Maybe thats why there is no switch anymore.  As 
for my 4kq, I'm going to dig out the owners manual again to see what 
Helmut says about it.

Zowie, I think Robin as not been tuned into the same Bat channel I have.  
The settings have been covered quite well, save maybe the early UrQs' 
where the knob only has 1 detent to lock both diffs, and the current 
exchange is putting forth some interesting theories on the later 
generations.  Stay tuned Boy Wonder and you will pick up a lot more than 
what the manual says, specifically what it doesn't say that could save 
your car/butt.

maybe not so eager any more to put a CQ (torsen) through it's paces!
