Hi mate just come across your chanel fantastic job man👍🏻 just purchased an S6 C5 got an vibration coming from the front when doing 70-80mph not the wheels etc checked all that someone advised its the flange or driveshafts but not sure any ideas? Looked all over forums nothing stated anywere
Great vid, I have an S3 8v and I’m experiencing a bad judder on the front end when accelerating from standing and a little knock noise around front os wheel? Do you think this would be a driveshaft issue? Nobody seems to be able to confirm it! TIA👍
love your videos! I have a C5 RS6 and I was curious if you guys had any videos/info on removing the shocks on from it. The DRC is giving me some concerns I might not do it right. Thanks!
Hi Max! No we didn't do one on the DRC changeover actually. But wish we had, along with the cambelt change.

Im going to need to do this on my B7 RS4 as i have a split inner CV drivers side. So why its off i have new bolts and Gators from Audi . Is the removel the same as this video ? I dont want to risk driving it as there is no greese left 😆
Yes, it is pretty easy to get the back in as well. I normally use a small pry bar to assist, just try and go fairly gentle and you should be fine.

Hi managed to remove 5 of the 6 bolts from inner part of driveshaft to gear box but 1 bolt has rounded inside, can you advise please? Much appreciated any help . Thanks.
That's pretty much the nightmare scenario :-( You should consider using a bolt extraction socket, like the ones made by Irwin. Then fit a new bolt when that is removed.

Hi , appreciate the help . Managed to remove last bolt by giving the bolt and the area around it a good clean with brake cleaner and soft brush , dried off then used heat gun on a low setting around bolt area for about 10 seconds and immediately used socket on breaker bar and first time crack and that was it off . But could not manage to refit new drive shaft not enough room didn’t want to damage new cv so removed top suspension arms and track rod end and plenty space to fit new one , car is back on the road, very happy. Many thanks again. Will sort a little donation to your page shortly. Thanks Scott.

Very similar actually, but not as easy :-( They tend not just to pop out as they do on the C5. You usually have to remove the bolt on the lower suspension arm and push the arm down out of the hub to get more space to be able to pop the shaft out of the back of the hub. Much easier on the C5.

Thanks for showing this, is it easy the other way around too in terms of reinstalling?

So I’m getting my drive shaft changed next week for my Audi. Do I have too buy 1 or 2??? I want both sides done ?
Hey there! Almost certainly each side will be a different part number, so you will need to buy one different one for each side you want replaced.

Did you have to remove the ABS sensor from the spindle before removing the front drive shaft?
No you don't have to, but of course you can if you are concerned about clipping it. But you should be fine with it in situ.

How similar is this job to a B7 Audi A4 2.0t Quattro?
Very similar actually, but not as easy :-( They tend not just to pop out as they do on the C5. You usually have to remove the bolt on the lower suspension arm and push the arm down out of the hub to get more space to be able to pop the shaft out of the back of the hub. Much easier on the C5. Otherwise, the principal is indentical.

Nice!! Thank you!! :)
This will not work on the passenger side. You've got tranny cooler lines directly above the cv axle. You must remove either top or lower control arms.
push brake pedal ? there is no brake installed at the moment !
Where does it say that?? What is the time in minutes/seconds please? We'll look into that, could be a mistake or an unintentioanl edit for/from another video. Thank you.
