Introduction
Infinitely variable perfection
For the first time in this vehicle class, Audi
offers the infinitely variable "multitronic"
automatic gearbox for all front-wheel drive
versions.
The architecture of motion
Performance and smooth running
The engine programme of the new Audi A4
includes two petrol engines of a completely
new design, with aluminium housings.
The 2.0 litre 4-cylinder in-line engine with
96 kW (130 PS) and the 3.0 litre V6 with
162 kW (220 PS) fulfil the EU 4 emissions
standard.
A high degree of running smoothness is
achieved via balancer shafts.
The new light alloy running gear
With the four-link front axle, each wheel is
controlled by four aluminium transverse links.
The pivot bearings are also made from the
same light alloy.
The trapezium link rear axle for the quattro
drive system is also used in the front-wheel
drive models of the Audi A4.

Engine and gearbox
In order to initiate pre-injection for cold and
warm engines, the solenoid valve dynamics
have been significantly increased.
The associated increased heat generation in
the solenoid valve, is compensated by
improved fuel flow and optimal filling of the
high pressure section is achieved.
Noise levels have been significantly improved
by the pre-injection for cold and warm opera-
tion and the use of dual-spring nozzle hold-
ers.
Injection pump VP 44 S3.5
Previously, pre-injection via the solenoid
valve was only realised during the engine
warm-up phase. The high pressure section of the injection
pump has been redesigned with regard to
pressure levels and quicker solenoid valve
actuation.
The injection pressure at part throttle has
been increased by the following measures:
– increased cam stroke from 3.5 to 4.0 mm
– more stable support structure for high
pressure section on pump body
– conversion from 3 pistons with a diameter
of 6.0 mm, to 2 pistons with a diameter of
7.0 mm.
By reducing the number of high-pressure pis-
tons from 3 to 2, it was possible to reduce
high-pressure leakage via the sealing sur-
faces.

The charge air cooler design comprises two
sections, in which part of the charge air is fed
via a through duct, connected to a space-sav-
ing pipe, to the section of the other charge air
cooler which is fitted with cooling fins.
The rest of the charge air is fed directly
through the cooling fins, via a separate pipe,
to the second charge air cooler and into the
through duct.
Charge air cooler
Engine and gearbox
The existing series connection of the two
charge air coolers for the 110 kW engine is
inadequate for the 132 kW engine with its
high air throughput.
A new charge air cooler design was devel-
oped, in order to ensure optimal charge air
flow.

Innovations - automatic
gearbox
5-speed 01V automatic gearbox
The Audi A4 quattro MJ01 with 5-speed auto-
matic gearbox features a new shift lever gate,
together with a new shifting concept.
The existing selector lever positions, 4,3,2 are
discontinued and are replaced by the "S"
position.
Gearshift positions 4,3,2 have been discontin-
ued as they are hardly ever used in practice.
The DSP (dynamic shift programme) and "tip-
tronic" function have basically rendered them
superfluous.
With the selector lever is in the "S" position, a
sports shift programme provides the relevant
driving dynamics. In position "S", the DSP
also provides for adaptation of the driving set
values to the driving conditions.
The introduction of the "S" programme ena-
bles a significant extension of the useful shift
range between economy and sports.
The "S" programme comprises the following
special features:
– If, during driving with constant accelerator
pedal position, the selector lever is set to
the "S" position, the system always shifts
down, within defined limits.
– In order to achieve a direct driving reaction
in response to accelerator pedal actuation,
the converter clutch is closed during driv-
ing operation, where possible.
– If, in conjunction with the overall gearbox
ratio, 5th gear is designed as overdrive
gear (overdrive, 4+E), only 1st -4th gears
are shifted.
We recommend the multi-function steering
wheel (available as optional extra) with steer-
ing wheel "tiptronic" ("thumb shifting").

Special feature:
The countdown from approx. 10 seconds to
return to normal automatic operation is inter-
rupted, in the event that cornering is detected
or the vehicle is in overrun operation.
When normal driving conditions are detected
again, the countdown recommences from
approx. 10 seconds. An innovation for all automatic gearboxes is
the "Tip in D " function. This means that the
steering wheel "tiptronic" function is now
also available in selector lever position "D".
The transition to the "tiptronic" function is
effected by actuating one of the two tip
switches on the multi-function steering wheel
(selector lever in position "D"). The system
then switches to the "tiptronic" function for
approx. 10 seconds. All gears can be shifted
within the range of permissible engine
speeds.
The system returns to normal automatic oper-
ation approx. 10 seconds after the last tip
request.

The additional cross member enables support
over a longer lever arm, which positively influ-
ences vibration and load cycle characteristics.
The aluminium cross member is bolted to the
body as well as to the rear subframe mount-
ings and, in addition to its supporting func-
tion for the gearbox mounting, serves as a
body-stiffening tunnel bridge.
Mechanical unit mountings
Running gear
The three-point mechanical unit mount-
ing is used for all engine/gearbox
combinations except those including
the 01V 5-speed automatic gearbox. A newly designed three-point mechanical unit
mounting is used in the new Audi A4.
The hydraulically damped engine mountings
(electrically-controlled version for diesel
engines) are fastened directly to the longitu-
dinal members via die-cast aluminium brack-
ets.
The gearbox mounting is effected by means
of a conventional rubber bearing on a body-
mounted aluminium carrier, which is pro-
duced according to the hollow sand casting
technique.
