Impressive job.
Good sound.

Dear Friends,

as far as the "Sound" goes, most of it comes from aid by the Audio System.

"Normal" Sound here:

..what about the 2.0l bi-tdi engine? will we see finally on the new a3 and next golv vii? this engine is currently available for amarok pick-up (180hp)and audi has to challenge bmw 125d (biturbo-218hp-450nm)

I have read somewhere that Golf VII GTD will powered with 2.0 TDI bi-turbo developing 230 +/- hp...
I supose that we are going to see that engine all over VAG range in near future!

?till today I read only about golf vii GTI 2.0 tfsi developing 230hp and gtd 190hp ( http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/n...k-7-2012-01-30 ),never read about the same amount of power on the tdi.I hope your info it's true,will bring audi over bmw on 2.0 tdi engine

it's going to be the 3.0 BiTDI with 313 hp in the SQ5

This engine will be the makings of the Q5. The chassis is so capable of coping with more.

Autocar are one of the ones saying the GTD will get 220hp plus they say the GTI will muster 260hp.

Well, that is going to be oponent to current BMW X3 xDrive35d, 3.0 - 313 ps... What will happend when you get that X3 trough Mperformance program!?

Info' that Joker stated is closer to mine, and it has more sense... Currently, in A4 and A6, 2.0 TDI producing 177 hp, and there are roumores that upcoming A3 will be having that same engine with 180 hp!
220-230hp for 2.0 bi-turbo sounds totaly reasoneble to me!

@ Joker & AndyBG: thanks, I hope we will see soon this fab engine.
Yes gtd biturbo 220hp may offset bmw 125d, I guess there will be a 4motion version of it too

[AndyBG]

Now I saw the link... It doesn't have sound, like every other diesel!

Here is the explanation how it works...!

a6 3.0 tdi 313hp has Sound Activator too...

[The RS6]

Can someone explain how that works?

[andreadebi]

Can someone explain how that works?

on bmw forums there are reviews-tests about active sound system on M5 f10 and also latest reviews on M550d
