I threw the o/s front driveshaft a month or so back, my local garage replaced it with a driveshaft from Parker’s. Once I’d got it back I could feel some vibration under acceleration so the suggestion was to change the n/s shaft too. After that was changed the vibrations were still there. After some investigating the garage discovered that Parker’s had supplied two different shafts one from shaftec and a premium one which according to them shouldn’t have been supplied (blamed the new lad on the phone), after some phone calls Parker’s replaced the o/s shaft with a shaftec the same as the n/s shaft. All seemed well but once again under acceleration the vibrating is still there and it’s doing my stack in. Is this a case of the supplied shafts aren’t suitable and I need to get them from Audi or could it be something else? Any advice will be greatly recieved.

Your wheels, are they correct CB? Do you use spigots? check to see if its still there

Brand new wheels with spigots, fitted, balanced and laser aligned. The vibrating started before I’d changed the wheels

Update. Replaced the o/s driveshaft with an Audi shaft, cost a bomb but problem solved
