Ive been in a friends 4000Q where it was in a similar situation. Basically
backed off a paved area in the rain into really loose mud. Honest, it was a
friends car. The rear wheels mights as well have been in air, and the car was
resting on the body sills in front of the rear tires. I ...uhhh... HE pulls the
diff locks, and drives out. No problem. This sold my friends wife on quattros
right then and there.
Wouldnt the S4 have been similar? Just push the button and drive out?
