Car parts and drivetrain components for Audi A6 Allroad C8.
The most common sign is a clicking noise heard when turning sharply at low speeds. If the sound disappears when driving in a straight line, it is almost certainly a worn outer CV joint.
No, there can be differences depending on engine power and gearbox type. Always select your car's make, model and engine variant in our search tool to find the exact parts that fit your specific vehicle.
The outer CV joint sits closest to the wheel and accommodates steering angles, whilst the inner CV joint sits next to the gearbox and primarily manages longitudinal suspension movement.
We recommend a visual inspection at every service or wheel change. An intact CV boot is the cheapest insurance against an expensive constant velocity joint replacement.
On the Audi A6 Allroad C8, you can easily replace just the CV joint if the shaft itself is undamaged, which is a much more cost-effective option than replacing the complete drive shaft.
Allroad models often feature air suspension that alters the drive shaft operating angles whilst driving. Incorrect or low-quality components can lead to vibrations and premature wear under these demanding conditions.
