Default A3 / SŁ model year 2001

I noticed in the Product info brochure the dealer had, it says the S3 has new suspension settings for 2001, anyone know what the effect of this is?

it also stated that the 1.8T 180hp quattro and diesel quattro now has a 6speed box as standard is this the same in the UK?<p>Rick B

Default I guess you also saw the price tag of the 2001 "SŁ" :)

Default Suspension Bits

Not sure of the total in and out story but yes, they say that they have refined the settings to make it better ride and sportier at the same time... I would guess with modified bump/rebound rates or the like. Who knows until they come through! Other than that, ESP has been talked about but I am not sure if that is true or if it's even a good thing (given the TT is now seen as boring by most mags after the changes to avoid the high speed oversteer)
