Towing in A4?

[ReallyNice]

Any issues with towing in A4? Around 3800 lbs if it matters.

I do not see a benefit unless weather or terrain conditions require it

Yep, I would only want to use it in heavy rain.

It wont hurt anything but not something I would do regularly

Lol- yeah, well for many people (myself included) first thing that comes to mind towing is boat/pwc in which case 4A @ a min on the launch ramp & I switch to 4H briefly when I’m initially leaving the ramp just for insurance

towing 3800 lbs if was windy dirt/gravel roads or if in slick/rainy situation I would use 4A

Not a problem at all.

Why? The torque steer from 4A is terrible. I never use it unless it’s snowing.

Well if you're using it for rain, you probably have a sense of safety in mind, which means you're not going full throttle every chance you get. 4A works great for just normal driving and only makes the steering slightly heavier.

I like being able to drive “as if” there’s no rain/standing water, 4A essentially makes that so- what I mean is, I F’n floor when I feel like it lol! Torsen diff causes more TQ steer, if you have that could be the culprit, but just keep your hands on the wheelp

Is that a non-Torsen issue or just someone who's never driven rally cars
