The Audi A6 axle assembly is a major component of your car's suspension system. The A6 axle assembly consists of an axle shaft, CV (constant velocity) joints, CV boots, and sometimes a U-joint. The primary job of your Audi A6 axle assembly is to send rotational force from your transmission to your wheels.
This means the CV joints in your A6 axle assembly must be in prime working condition. The Audi A6 axle assembly is under a great deal of pressure, and the CV joints are carefully lubricated and tightly packed inside a protective rubber gasket called a CV boot.
If the slightest amount of contaminant makes its way into a CV joint, your entire A6 axle assembly can be damaged. For this reason, the CV boots are particularly tough, durable, and tear-resistant. However, since they are made out of rubber, the CV boots will eventually deteriorate over time. The axle shaft of your Audi A6 axle assembly may also be damaged or broken if your car hits a particularly hard bump. The typical warning sign of a damaged A6 axle assembly is a grinding noise coming from the front of your vehicle. This can occur when your CV joints are contaminated or your axle shaft is bent or broken. You should periodically check your CV boots for signs of cracking or breaching. If the boot is cracked, chances are your CV joint has already been contaminated, and you are better off installing a whole new Audi A6 axle assembly.
