The Audi SQ8 axle shaft, also called a CV axle or half shaft, sends power from the differential out to the wheel while letting the wheel move up and down and steer. This is a used shaft for the SQ8, a high performance SUV with a twin turbo V8 and all wheel drive. The outer and inner constant velocity joints come with it, so you replace the complete unit at once.
If you hear clicking in turns, feel a vibration under acceleration, or see torn boot grease flung around the wheel, the axle shaft is usually the cause. Because the SQ8 is all wheel drive, shafts differ by side and by front or rear, so confirm your build before ordering.
