Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro drivetrain
The Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro combines elegant styling with sophisticated engineering and powerful performance. Maintaining that signature driving experience calls for a drivetrain in peak condition. The drivetrain in this model is engineered to handle the torque delivered by the turbocharged 2.0 TFSI engine, while the Quattro system distributes power efficiently to all four wheels. As a Swedish driveline specialist, we understand the exacting demands placed on components for this specific model. We offer a curated selection of parts that match or exceed original specifications, which is vital for both safety and durability.
When maintaining your Audi A5 Sportback, compromising on quality is never an option. Every component in the power transmission system—from the smallest CV boot to the complete propeller shaft—influences how the car behaves on the road. Choosing the correct spare parts ensures your car's four-wheel-drive system operates seamlessly while keeping fuel economy optimal. Our range covers the most frequent requirements for the 2.0 Tfsi Quattro variant, making us your natural partner for repairs and preventative servicing alike.
How the Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro drivetrain works
The drivetrain layout of an Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro is a masterclass in modern automotive engineering. The engine is longitudinally mounted, sitting in line with the vehicle's direction of travel. This layout ensures balanced weight distribution and smooth integration with the Quattro all-wheel-drive system. Engine power travels from the gearbox to a central differential, which apportions torque between the front and rear axles. At the front, power is delivered to the road wheels via drive shafts, while a heavy-duty propeller shaft carries torque rearward to the rear differential and outwards to the rear wheels through the rear driveshafts.
A setup like this relies on precision at every junction. The outer CV joints enable the front wheels to steer while still transferring engine torque, whereas the inner constant velocity joints accommodate suspension travel and angular changes. For the 2.0 Tfsi Quattro model, all components are engineered to withstand both spirited driving and demanding road conditions. Understanding this layout is essential when selecting replacement car parts. Every component must be precisely balanced to avoid unwanted vibrations and premature wear on adjacent assemblies.
Common problems and symptoms
Despite Audi's high build standards, driveline components inevitably wear over time—particularly on a four-wheel-drive car where forces are shared across more moving parts. A common sign of a failing outer CV joint on an Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro is a distinct clicking or knocking noise on full steering lock under acceleration. This typically occurs because a CV boot has split, allowing road dirt to contaminate the joint and grease to escape, which rapidly accelerates internal wear.
Vibration during acceleration, by contrast, often points to a worn inner CV joint. These vibrations are generally felt through the car's floor and chassis rather than the steering wheel. If vibrations occur at specific cruising speeds, an unbalanced or worn prop shaft—or its centre bearing—may be the culprit. Addressing these symptoms promptly prevents collateral damage to the gearbox or differentials, saving you from far more costly repairs later.
Frequently replaced parts on the Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro
We see a clear pattern in the components most frequently needed for the Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro. Our warehouse stocks an extensive inventory of model-specific components, providing excellent coverage for common repairs. The most sought-after parts include:
- Drive shafts: We stock multiple driveshaft variants suited to both the front and rear axles, matching your vehicle's exact technical specification.
- Propeller shafts: With several complete prop shafts available, we cater directly to drivelines suffering from centre-bearing play or shaft imbalance.
- CV joints: We supply both outer and inner constant velocity joints, allowing you to replace only the worn joint rather than the entire shaft assembly when appropriate.
Having access to the correct specification is crucial, as Audi often implemented subtle design updates between production runs and trim levels. By specialising in these core categories, we make sure that 2.0 Tfsi Quattro owners can readily source the correct parts to maintain original Quattro performance.

Frequently Asked Questions about Drivetrain for Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro
How do I know if my Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro needs a new drive shaft?
The most common signs are heavy vibrations under acceleration or a persistent noise coming from underneath the vehicle. If you notice the car shaking under load, it is often an inner CV joint or the drive shaft itself that has worn out.
What are the symptoms of a worn outer CV joint on an Audi A5?
A clear symptom is a clicking or knocking noise heard when turning sharply, such as during parking manoeuvres, whilst applying throttle. This usually indicates that the joint has run dry or suffered damage due to a split CV boot.
Why does my Audi A5 Sportback vibrate under acceleration?
Vibrations under acceleration on a Quattro model often stem from an imbalance in the propeller shaft or wear in the inner CV joints. Because torque is distributed across all four wheels, driveline wear is often more noticeable than on two-wheel-drive cars.
Do all propeller shafts fit the 2.0 Tfsi Quattro?
No, the propeller shaft is specific to the engine variant, gearbox and model year. It is therefore crucial to select your vehicle's exact make, model and engine details to ensure you get the correct length and mounting design for your car.
How often should you inspect the CV boots on an Audi A5?
We recommend inspecting the CV boots at every routine service or seasonal wheel change. An intact boot provides the best protection for your CV joints; if it tears, dirt and moisture will quickly ruin the joint.
How do I find the correct driveline parts for my car?
Simply select your car's make, model, year and engine variant in our vehicle selector. This is the most reliable way to filter out the exact drive shafts, CV joints and propeller shafts designed for your Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 Tfsi Quattro.
