I must point out that typ81 means it's FWD. Typ85 meant Quattro. So there are 2 possibilities - someone has rebuilt it or the VIN has been illegaly changed on the chassis.

where can i find this ?? there isn't in docs..
in ETKA software there are lots of quattro models in sales type 81 ...
that mean it's real VIN for 84's quattro ..
I think the engine code is JS ..Last edited by mr405; 10 March 2013, 05:50.Comment

Not necessarily.
The Type 85 body, i.e. two-door coupe, extends in one form or another from 1980 to 1991. Type 85 covers coupes (ACO) (not quattro) (1981-87), coupe quattros (ACOQ) (1985-88) and *THE* "quattro" (AQS) (1980-1991)
The ACO VINs were 85-model year letter - A (= Ingolstadt) 000001 and up with reset each year
The ACOQ VINS were also 85-model year letter - A (= Ingolstadt) - 000001 and up with reset each year.
The AQS VINs were mostly 85-model year letter - A (= Ingolstadt) 900001 and up with reset each year to 900001 (until 1989 when the number sequences started at 000001 each year (since he coupe quattros were done and gone)).
So without knowing the numbers and seeing a build tag, WAUZZZ85ZFA??????, only means it is a 1985 model year (the "F") Type 85 built in Ingolstadt - with no way of telling whether it is a coupe, coupe quattro or Audi quattro. Need more info.RS2'd 93 UrS4 5 spd sedan

Well I'm not sure about the Coupes but if we are talking about Audi 80 saloons, it should be like that... E.g. my Audi 80 made in 1986, FWD is typ81, every Quattro I have seen, even if made in 1981 is Typ85.
Probably should make a call to Audi to make sure though.
Anyway, can you tell me something about the options the one in the picture has?Last edited by Klobsters; 10 March 2013, 08:28.1994 Audi 80 CompetitionComment

I think people are getting confused with THE Audi quattro (the all-wheel drive, turbo-charged, five cylinder, box-flared Coupe circa 1980-1991) which is a Type 85, and Audi 80s sedans/saloons, etc (Type 81s) that were equipped with the all-wheel drive system that Audi marketed as as "quattro".
As for your build tag, this is what I get:
Audi 80 4dr LHD with 66 kW/90 hp carbureted 1.8L engine (DS) with five-speed 2N two-wheel drive transmission (PN 013300043AX) in stone grey metallic (LY7U) with brazil brown cloth sports seats (43).
R22 Power Steering With Mobility Aid (Additional Damping Valves And Limited Steering Lift Mechanism)
W46 4-Way Shift Mechanism
197 #N/A (don't know, not listed that I could find)
272 Steering Damper
528 Exterior mirror, right, convex
560 Manual metal sunroof
619 #N/A (don't know, can't find a listing)
704 Audi 80 GT package including spoilers and sport seats (long list)

Jens's Audi pages states that the B2s were Typ 81s until July 1984 when the face-lifted Typ 81s became Typ 85s (for the 1985 model year). I still don't know where B2 = Typ85 came from because ETKA still lists a 1985 Audi 80 as an 81nnn (but the ACOQ = 85nnn). That said, I don't know if I trust Jens's info because he does not designate a 1989 A80Q as an 8A, in fact he lists all B3s as Typ89s when infact there was a split 7/89 to 8/89 between 89nnn and 8Annn.

Certainly there must be misconceptions out there because I see an Audi 80 quattro designated as a 8110F5 or G5 in the list that was presented. I would really appreciate seeing a photo of the "another badge under the bonnet" that has the "type" written on it.
Quiz: What model and "Type" is this: 447F55 ?
Answer: Audi 200 20VT 3B quattro, an example of a Typ44.
Just saying...
I know there are inconsistencies in designations. However, I would like to see documentation of a "Typ85" tag associated with a VIN with "81" as the model code for a sedan (no arguements with the coupes being Typ85s).Last edited by UrS4boy; 11 May 2013, 20:50.RS2'd 93 UrS4 5 spd sedan

Again, I agree mid-1980's coupes are Typ85s. No question. What I am interested in is a pre-B3 A80Q quattro sedan (2 dr or 4 dr) designated as a "Typ85" when the VIN has WAUZZZ81.... in it. You are probably right but with me you need to hammer a stake in my heart/brain with hard evidence before I will shut up.
