you just need model 1660. Its available at PEP Boys, and is designed specifically to fit certain audis, VW's and older porsche's. Keep in mind I have a tip S4 so I put it on the brake pedeal. HAve not tried on a manual S4's clutch or brake pedal yet. Fourth of july is here soon and i'm headed down to S4 thrft ground zero, just thought i'd shre the extra protection i just got...keep i mind the best way to rpevent theft is multiple measure of defense which can include the autolock or club etc.
oh btw, the people at the website that sells autolock (forget teh URL) are idiots...they didn't even know this model existed when i called them a couple months ago. i just happened to find this while i was picking up some oil at the Pep boys.

Well, if you need a place to wash your S and have a brew, stop by. I'm 5 mins away.

Default For the smart ones...

When it is "automatic" it goes on the BRAKE pedal, because you cannot shift otherwise...

When it is "manual" it goes on the CLUTCH pedal since you cannot shift or start the car otherwise ! ! ! !

Just my .02 cents

Default Ummm, actually ...

I put it on the brake lever because it's hardened steel, while the clutch lever is aluminum, which is much easier to cut through. After cutting through a lever, it wouldn't be that tricky for them to put together some sort of temporary pedal replacement ... so that's why it's on the brake.

Default But did you know....

That with a free clutch, they can start the car and with a usable E-brake they can stop it?

If they want to rip you off, they can run it a few blocks and strip the hell out of the car and leave it there with the lock on !

Does this lock also uses the Steering Wheel, because if not, it is a waste of money.

The one I use from Autolock (I brought it from Greece for my I-Mark), you put the E-brake up on the highest position, insert an SS tube onto the E-brake and with it lock the shift lever at the Park position (I have a Tip)Cannot shift and cannot release brake. Too bad when I had it on the I-Mark it was still in the box in the trunk... Oh well, car survived that...
