The Audi 80 Differential allows the driven tires to seek the speed required by each tire, providing the sedan with confident cornering and saving the tires from scrub. Throughout the history of the car, Audi constructed front-wheel-drive models in which the engine was mounted on the front axle and quattro models in which the engine was mounted on the rear or center axle; therefore, all designs have the advantage of sharing work and endurance of the same robust torque distribution. Swapping parts is easy and cheap, as every generation of the 80 is based on the same core housing, be they early B1 sedans or B4 wagons. An open Differential employs hard helical gears in order to achieve smooth steering on dry pavement, with the limited-slip version added, which provides clutch packs that thrust torque to the wheel with grip, increasing launch and mid-corner exit. Since this system minimizes drag on a straight run but provides equal power in the bends, it not only eliminates excess fuel consumption and balances the chassis but also supports active safety measures such as anti-lock brakes. The owners applaud the cast-iron case, heat-treated gears, and broad oil channels, which last a long time despite high mileage with just regular fluid inspection. The same Differential geometry is compatible across models such that a driver is able to pilot a front-drive commuter, a sporty quattro, or a rugged Avant. This emphasis on interchangeability is part of the broader Audi ethos of developing a single solution which is long-lasting, and this is reflected in the day-to-day feel where the car follows a straight line even when applied on wet back roads. The mechanical logic in the Audi Differential reacts immediately, unlike many competitors which use electronic aids to conceal power loss, hence grip is available as soon as rubber touches tarmac. Simply put, the 80 driveshaft finds an ally of sorts that is a proven low-maintenance partner that transforms each kilometer into a lesson in balanced power, cementing the Audi legacy of reliability and performance.
