Anyone know what the power distribution to the front and rear wheels? I've seen 50:50 posted in some places and 40:60 in others. I wasn't sure if it was different between the S4 and A4.

Thanks,

Torque distribution is 50:50. S/RS has 60:40, with more to the rear tires.

I'm not sure how accurate these are, but it appears it is a 40/60 split, at least on the manual version.

"Another notable inclusion is the 3rd-generation quattro system which uses 40:60 front-rear torque distribution."

"in terms of handling, get the A4 Quattro instead with the 40:60 rear-biased all wheel drive system."

The only 40F/60R models in the B7 lineup are the 6MT S4 &amp; the RS4. A4s &amp; Tip S4 are 50/50.
