Default 88 automatic - D-36?

I know in 86 the d-44 came for manuals only - but has the D-36 been the standard for the automatics - specifically an 88? or did they upgrade it to a d-44 by then?

If that was the case my '91 auto would have a D44. I wish.

No 44s in the automatic cars, none, unless it has been modified.

84-96 A4=D36
85-96 4+3 and M6=D44

84s all got D36.

In short, all C4 A4s were built with the D36. All C4 manuals, except the 1984, were built with the D44.

RACE ON!!!
