Default engine codes

Fellas,
would any of you know what the differences are between the various 2002 A8 engine codes. I have an acquaintance whose version of ETOS seems to be for Great Britain. It does not even list my AUX coded engine.Just for interest what are the differences between the 4.2 engines that would be ascribed to the various codes?
Thanks,
AlbeeG

Default 32V vs 40V, S vs. A (primarily head differences), would be some of the codes.

ABZ is the common 32V 4.2 in pre-facelift A8s, for instance.
