Maybe aerohead knows the improvement between the Audi 80 and the B1 Passat. DuckDuckGo gets confused by the Audi CD turbodiesel.
I've been going back through my mags and even when they mentioned Audi 80 (4000) 'facelifts,' there was never any expansion on details of what was done.
With the Passat (Quantum) I've never seen anything said in detail.Sucks!
Hucho went into detail for changes between the Audi 100-II and III.
*They optimized the boot height.
*They optimized the boot length.
*They optimized the backlight angle.
*And a few other tricks concerning the side elevation profile,however that's at home in Hucho's book.Sorry!
I do recall that the changes were so subtle,that unless you were paying close attention,you'd never discern the difference between the two.
I'll get back to you.
