Talk:Audi Quattro

message: Article claims that quattro won first rally that it participated. That is not quite true. Hannu Mikkola dominated Monte Carlo rally with outstanding 8min lead but he was forced to end the rally due to technical problems. First win was taken in next rally.
And also although car was fast, it had many technical problems especially in first rally season.
I cant start editing article since my english skills are not good enough.
Results of rallies (not sourcing my claim about Hannu Mikkola):

thread_title: Rally success

message: This page is only 7.5k, and includes a section on the Qudi Quattro Sport. The Audi Quattro S1 page is a teeny little stub. I say merge. --DeLarge 20:55, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge from [[Audi Quattro S1]]

message: Although it is a small article, I do not agree with the merging because
Audi Coupe Quattro  and  Audi Quattro are different cars.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.219.17.7 (talk) 17:47, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The word Quattro just says it all and that simply read merge. Willirennen (talk) 19:17, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge from [[Audi coupe quattro|Audi Coupe Quattro]]

message: I agree that there's no reason for merging the article because Audi Coupe Quattro and Audi Quattro really are different cars. Audi Coupe was equipped with N/A engines and Audi Quattro had only one engine option available per "evolution". There was 2.1 litre SOHC 10v turbo, 2.2 litre 10v SOHC turbo and 2.2litre 20v DOHC turbo. 82.103.197.183 08:43, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would like to say even if one do not have a turbocharger, that still makes them the same car as they have the same body and the same drivetrain, plus turbo or non-turbo the 4wd coupe will still make them a Quattro as they are universally known as the Audi Quattro.

text: Another vote against merging Audi Quattro with Audi coupe quattro. If anything, the Audi coupe quattro article could be merged with Audi Coupe GT. Captndelta 22:58, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Another vote against merging Audi Quattro with Audi coupe quattro. The quattro and the coupe quattro is different in body work as the quattro has new bumpers and wider fenders and the coupe has the 90 fenders and bumpers. and the wheels are mounted with 5 bolts on the quattro and 4 on the coupe.
i know this as im restoring a coupe quattro. greetings from norway.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.202.235.2 (talk) 13:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This doesn't look like a "start" class article to me, it's got images, and sources, and it's a lot longer than I'd expect a "start" class article. Not familiar with the rating system on this WikiProj, but I'm sure someone watching this page is. 86.151.62.124 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment was added at 06:33, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Rating

message: I don't know when it came up, but the E2 version of the Sport quattro was originally never called 'S1' by Audi. Please see the discussion page the german version of this page, or the biography of Walter Röhrl ('Aufschrieb') on this common mistake. Quote:...'Der E2, von vielen fälschlich 'S1' genannt, wurde im Juli fertig.'... (translation:....'The E2, misleadingly called 'S1' by many, was finished in July'....) 194.24.158.1 (talk) 12:46, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmmmm...so where did the "S1" moniker come from? Do you have any references in English for "E2" being the official designation? 13:11, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Audi Quattro 'S1'

message: This article should certainly cover the use of this model in the TV series Ashes to Ashes, but I don't think it's appropriate to include that in the lead section.  Tasty monster (=TS ) 13:16, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ashes to Ashes 

message: Since the Audi quattro is trademarked with a lower case "q" shouldn't all the titles and references to the car on the page have lower case Qs? SchellZ (talk) 20:31, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Personally, I try not to give too much importance to what marketeers have to say. But I will remain neutral in this question, since the lower case q has been maintained for a long time by Audi.  Mr.choppers | ✎  07:39, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

text: The way the article is at the moment is inconsistant. Some capital, some lower case. I just don't like having some subheadings with capital, others with lower case Qs. SchellZ (talk) 08:11, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The only guideline would be MOS:TRADEMARK - but that in itself is not especially helpful.  The only phrase I would latch onto in the article is "...choose the style that most closely resembles standard English, regardless of the preference of the trademark owner" which suggests that (in this case) the Q should be upper case as it's a name - although that's only my reading of it.  I suppose other editors may have a different intepretation.  Chaheel Riens (talk) 09:43, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

message: Bore was not 79,3mm.  This mistake is all over the net. It was a standard 79,5mm like the road cars. To reach 2134ccm (NOT 2133ccm!!) they re-grinded the crankshaft slightly eccentric to 86,0mm, with the use of slightly thicker bearing shells. regards,  2003:DC:F73D:6F00:9DB7:9F74:6747:EF7A (talk) 05:31, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
