SACHS Performance Clutch for Audi 100 (C3) 2.3 quattro – Engine Code: AAR
For your Audi 100 (C3) with 2.3 quattro engine (98 kW, engine code: AAR), we offer genuine SACHS Performance clutch components in OE quality. All parts are specifically developed for the AAR engine and ensure direct bolt-on fitment.
With its record drag coefficient of Cd 0.30 at launch in 1982 and the first fully galvanized Audi body from 1985, the 100 C3 was a technical milestone. The 2.3-litre five-cylinder quattro with 133 PS offered classic five-cylinder character with the confidence of all-wheel drive. The flush-mounted windows of the C3 were an industry innovation and contributed to the lowest drag coefficient of any production sedan.
