Will work if it is coming off a A4 or Passat.

As for the FWD vs AWD, that doesn't matter as long as it is off a Longitude car. Everything in the engine on a FWD A4/Passat is the same on a AWD A4/Passat.

Computer companies need to start putting breath analyzers on their products to keep the "drunk" off the web

Dont Drink and TYPE
