That is definitely a key difference but really both engines aren't the same as no components are shared. That is how different it is. Just like the BMW 2.0T doesn't share anything with the Audi the VW doesn't share anything with Audi either.
Incorrect, the A4 isn't even on the same platform as the Passat or similiar. That said the new MQB platform will be shared with Porsche, Audi, and VW and the platform will be modified to each companies specs. This doesn't bother me one bit as the 3 companies can build a better platform at the same time saving money for other areas.
What bothers me is the incorrect information that people state as facts without doing the research.
CVT A4 are almost non existent in North America.

Sorry I meant to say shared the same platform like the B5's. Burundi shares a lot of parts like turbos, driveline components, and electronics.
I see CVT's at my Audi dealership and last time I talked to the dealer they told about 30 to 20 percent are FWD.
So where do your numbers come from?
