Car parts and drivetrain components for Audi 80 Avant 1.6 E. Always check the fit before ordering.
The most common symptoms are heavy vibrations under acceleration or unusual noises while driving. If you notice that the CV boot is torn and grease has escaped, there is a strong chance that the entire drive shaft or CV joint needs replacing.
No, CV joints vary depending on the engine variant and gearbox. For your Audi 80 Avant 1.6 E, it is important to check the spline count and dimensions, which you can easily confirm by selecting your car's make, model and engine in our shop.
A common cause is a cracked or dirty ABS ring on the CV joint. This disrupts the signal to the sensor and causes the system to flag a fault. We stock replacement ABS rings that resolve this issue without having to replace the entire constant velocity joint.
The outer CV joint sits at the wheel hub and accommodates steering angles, whilst the inner CV joint is fitted at the gearbox and handles suspension travel. Clicking noises when cornering point to the outer joint, whereas vibrations often indicate a worn inner joint.
Yes, if you catch the damage early before dirt and moisture have entered the joint, replacing the CV boot and repacking it with fresh grease is often enough to save the component.
