Are all B3/B4 Coupes not E line cars??

SteveCat · 20-09-08, 09:15 PM

OK,sounds a bit confusing at first but bear with the Groom......

On the tailgate on the 89-2000 Coupe/Cabs the badging gives engine size then the letter E for example 2.6 E

Ive seen a few with no E. Im assuming that this means the non E-Line cars came with certain stuff missing.

Can anyone shed any light??

What does the E stand for?

or what did it stand for rather?

Our old 80 avant quattro was a 2.6e and our old coupe was a 2.2 e

E line cars...

E stand for Einspritzung, Injection in german

Golf GTI is GTI, not GTE only because Audi already used that name for sporty version of Audi 80 - GTE. And here is the reason, why GTE was called "sport" for uk market - because buyers would not understand, what tha f means GTE, just like u both there

While name "sport" can't be confused - very sporty car, isn't it?

But it's just simple Audi 80 with block of 1.8 carburatted engine with different head for injectors and fuel injection - biggest difference, and this is what E stands for

And this E letter is seperate, so it may be lost - it's glued with double sided adhesive tape

I recently get some stuff from one B3 in junkyard, including front electrical windows, and, also badges "Audi" "80" "oooo" "2.0" "E"

Btw this is one of funniest thing I saw in last month

Mr. catgroom, how u would cal B3 1.8 carburatted [1.8S on rear of the car] - "S line"

Goddamn it, I have turned my B3 from "s-line" to "e-line"
