    Quattro question

    I've just been wondering about the A3 Sportback Quattro that is fitted with a Haldex diff(according to the website). When driving normally do any of you guys know if this is a 50/50 bias system or is it 90/10 like the 4 motion golfs? With the 90% being the front wheels. Cheers for any answers.
