Sounds like you didn't get good information.

The only difference was the type of tranny. A3 and M4 were shorter (therefore DS & TA longer) than T5 & TH700. V6 or V8 didn't matter.

Not sure if this was v6 only or what, but my V6's tourque arm had the tourque arm facing the opposite direction. But its no big deal, you just order the proper tourque arm mount for the tranny.
