Default Line lock in an Auto??

Now i've heard of numerous people putting line locks on their M6 cars, but i've never seen an auto car with it!! Is it the same thing or is there any problems with this?? TIA!!

I have one in mine. I works great and I used the Convertible Top switch as the activation switch. Looks stock in the car.

Have one in mine ....... saves the rear brakes, and makes burnouts easier.

Cant stand weak burnouts

I have one too. The M6s and A4s use the same kit and they both work the same.

Make sure you use plenty of teflon paste on the pipe threads. This past fall I kept loosing my brakes every week and a half or so and I found one of the fittings on the bottom of the noid barley seeping fluid, but it was obviously sucking air. I tightened it some more but it still leaks whe the LL is engaged. Everything is going to have to come out to get to it. Nothing like having to do things twice.

I have a unit from SLP. Bought the whole kit because of the prebent lines. I'd make a mockery of them if I tried to bend them on my own. Used the paste and have no issues for about 2yrs now. A little electronic trickery and a OEM traction control switch for the activation. Traction light is on when the LL is engaged, off otherwise.
