The Ford / Volvo 5 cylinder is the same engine (according to wikipedia) and is transverse through a Haldex centre diff (which is why I bought an S4 in the end), same as the A3 / Golf AWD, It's also a lot more modern than the old Audi lump and thus more complex, has variable timing etc.

My old Civic 1.4. Same era as the EK9, I don't remember the exact model code. It had NO power at all and awful tyres but it slid so progressively in corners and demanded I learnt to carry speed. I have got lazy since I got my car with a real engine.
