I have the exhaust off my 200q20v for some repairs to the rear end (no
schoolboy giggling, please), and was thinking that now would be a good time to pay
the center driveshaft some much needed attention.
I have been getting noise when I let off the gas (like a metal on metal
rattle) and I think it is narrowed down to the U-joint / center bearing area. Of
course, with this being a long hollow chunk of metal, it's difficult to say
precisely from where the noise originates.
I did a google search and there is refererence to both a BMW and a Mercedes
replacement bearing / carrier that will work with the audi drive shafts, but I
am having trouble tracking down the exact part numbers and which bearing /
carrier goes to which audi driveshaft.
If anyone has the information, please let me know, or, alternately, provide
me with a link where it can be found.
Thanks,
Tom Werner
