    Hey all,

    Just wondering what the red T on the 2006 A4 2.0T means. Some are all chrome and some are red with chrome trim. Whats the red one stand for?

    Thats right. Which meant that model B5 came with 30 extra HP because of the bigger turbo. Does it mean the same for the 2006? Or is it 15 extra HP like grimlock said?

    Does it really matter, you'll most likely debadge anyway. It's probably just a random thing Audi does.

    Re: Whats the red T emblem mean?

    If you had a B5 A4, the red T = sport package. If you have a B7 with a red T, it means Germans like to change things up once in a while. '06 B7 have red T's, anything after is a silver T in reg, prem, s-line, or s-line w/ titanium package.

    Geeze guise.

    All 2.0t's had the red T at first, but I think after 2006 they switched it back to chrome. It didn't signify anything. I guess it was just another way to "cut costs' when they stripped all the sweet goodies from the 2005/2006 A4's.

    No, it means you are gullible enough to believe anything you read on the internet.

    Ok, for the bazillion gazillionth time, 05.5 & 06 have red T and it seems to be random after that.

    Actually it was a change sometime in during MY07. Some 07 cars have the red T, well after cars started showing up with chrome T.

    There shouldn't be many MY07 with a red T, but the MY06 all had them. They may have used up their stock on the first 07's, but there shouldn't have been many.

    I was close... But hey, I said "after 2006" so that includes random time during 2007

    Protip: If you can find a red T emblem (they're rare) it gives your car more power off the line for street racing
