A-4 drive shaft replacement
I need feedback on changing out a drive shaft on my daughter's 97 A-4
Quattro... it has a clunking noise when you start off but smoothes out after. Can this be done fairly easy with a rebuilt shaft assembly?? Thanks for your advise in advance. |

clicking noise is definitely rythmic with speed increase from start... stops
as you go faster etc. "ron" > wrote in message ... > > "Rob Alward" > wrote in message > news:%5vld.39$tw3.34@lakeread03... > > I need feedback on changing out a drive shaft on my daughter's 97 A-4 > > Quattro... it has a clunking noise when you start off but smoothes out > > after.

Rob,
Sounds like a CV joint - is it more prevalent in a turn to the left or right? Cheers!
