these modifications to get our U.S. A6s to Euro standard. IMHO, Audi should offer a Euro spec suspension and Servotronic delete option. Love the improved Sport Sedan feel.

The relay #`s differ by the year . Relay under steering wheel will say Servotronic on it.

Default What models and what year have this type of steering....

I have a 2003 3.0 and I don't have sensitive steering. I drove a loaner with CVT and its steering was overly sensitive - but I don't know the year.

Don't know about late model non-quattros, but power steering is available across the line.

Yes. Servotronic is an option in Europe, so no relay.
