Very similar figures to the V8 TTD Q7 Audi engine not much difference at all in power and torque figures if i remember correctlyQuote:

But that V8 TTD is a stinking great engine!!
Yep,forgot about that,it can fit 18" genuine rims,not like the D4.Quote:

Yes the off road height is pretty high,but i haven't compared it to the D4
That V8 is excellent on fuel as well.
It would be interesting to see how a reprogrammed 3.0 D4 goes against a standard V8 D4? ... :p
My money is on the V8. ... ;)
You should drive the SQ5. Its significantly quicker with the 3.0 twin turbo V6 diesel. Its a great vehicle!Quote:
