I would have posted this under the relay thread, but I'm not sure if you're reading that far down.

Default Mine is in.

I like the steering that my allroad has. I think it works well since mine is a daily driver. At triple digit speeds I never noticed the steering which means it's all good.

FYI it's a 628 in the 2002. 605 in the 2001.

Me, too. Removing it only made it harder to steer at slow speeds.

Can you put a 628 relay in a 2001 allroad?

Default It's a 605 in a 2001. You can pull it or switch it.

Check the tech section. Pretty sure there's a detailed article on it if you want to add a switch to turn it on and off. That's what I did. (Though I should have just pulled it -- never use it.)

Default I think the 605 in the '01s is worse than the newer 6 series relay

with 605 in the allroad steering was like a video game.

Default 628 out makes for much better feel.........

if you are performance minded at all you will prefer it. also, like I said before my 105lb girlfriend prefers it out and has no problem parking. very easy to remove and replace, try it and make your own decision.

Default Duh. My bad. Read "put" as "pull".

628 is supposedly better than the 605 and can be swapped in a 2001. Search the A6 forum. There's been tons of discussion regarding the two.
