Through google.

Long story short, can you switch from dyadic to comfort to individual?

One way is to see if "sport differential" is a variable you can set when setting individual options in ADS. If so then you have it. If not, you don't.

On a 2013 if it has drive select it has sport diff, all 2014 and up s4 will have this button weather or not it has sport diff. In 2010-2012 if the drive select is on the front by the A/C it has spkrt diff.

I thought you could get a 2013 with adaptive damping + drive select with no sport diff but could be wrong. I would agree that all 2013s with sport diff and / or adaptive damping have drive select just not sure every 2013 with drive select has sport diff.

The 2013 has drive select if it is equipped with adaptive suspension, sport differential or the driver assist pkg (dynamic steering and adaptive cruise control). The only way of telling what you actually have is to look at the individual mode screen in the MMI.

A day without a sports differential is like a day without sunshine.

It's like having an extra clip in the dresser, you might not ever use it, but it's nice to know you have it,
