i've done 2 of these now [90q and a4q] and if it were me i'd find
someone to rebuild the driveshaft. the part i got for my 90 was
completely different than what came off. plus it wobbled like crazy
despite me being very careful to mark it prior to disassembly. i
ended up having it rebuilt locally and they sourced a far more correct
csb and balanced it prefectly. repainted it too. =)
the a4 is better, but still has a very slight vibe at high speed [over
100 so not too big of a deal]. the cost difference is big - like $30
for the part and $400 for a rebuilt but it's way better then the 1300
audi would charge for a whole new propshaft.
