New RS4----5th Audi
Just purchased a black cab RS4 and a black cab S$(for the wife)--love the car so far, but the ride quality of the S4 is significantly better--less jittery and less cowl shake. Any idea why?

Ride Quality - The DRC is a bit limp and floaty in a straight line..corners it firms up a bit.
I'm having STaSIS coilovers installed Monday on my 08 RS4 to take care of that. DRC simply isn't a sport feeling suspension to me.
The cowl shake can be contributed to the different engines.. the 2.0T and 4.2 FSI's have a bit of dieseling like a truck where as the S4 4.2 is a bit smoother.
