Quick facts

Part: TrakMotive AD-8196 CV axle shaft
Fits: 2012-2018 Audi A6 Quattro and other vehicles
Position: Rear left
Condition: New

A torn boot with grease thrown around the joint, a clicking noise in turns or vibration under acceleration can mean the axle joint is worn. These signs alone do not prove the axle is at fault, since a worn wheel bearing can also cause noise and vibration. The rear axle takes one shaft per side; this listing is the rear left, and the rear right is ordered separately. Shafts on both sides are often replaced as a pair.

Fits

The 2012-2018 Audi A6 Quattro is one of the vehicles it fits, along with the 2012-2018 Audi A7 Quattro and the 2011-2018 Audi A8 Quattro.
