I had the engine and gearbox mounts replaced with RS4 ones.

Doug at MRC did them - definitely in-situ but not a quick job. Gearbox ones are much easier than the engine ones.

i think it's just the way quattro is on tight turns at slow speeds, however mine got less apparent when i had my laser wheel alignment done..

I'm sure Grizz will jump in at some point, but when i was interested in some RS4 clocks they couldn't go in an S4 pre the digital clock facelift late '99.
