Detailed Description

AD-8162 is a TrakMotive CV axle shaft engineered for Audi front axle replacement where the original shaft uses a flange-style inner connection and a spline-bolt outer joint. This part number is used across a wide range of Audi fitments, including 2012-2018 Audi A6 Quattro, 2012-2018 Audi A7 Quattro, 2011-2018 Audi A8 Quattro, 2014-2018 Audi RS7, 2013-2018 Audi S6, 2013-2018 Audi S7, 2013-2018 Audi S8, 2013-2016 Audi Q5, 2014-2016 Audi SQ5, and select 2017 Q5 and SQ5 applications. It also covers 2016 Audi A6 and A7, plus 2009-2012 and 2015 Audi Q5 front-left applications.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

Clicking or popping during turns caused by worn CV joints
Vibration from a damaged or unbalanced axle shaft
Grease leakage from a failing driveline seal area
Clunking on acceleration or deceleration from axle wear
Front driveline noise on Audi A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8 Quattro, Q5, and SQ5 models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s position, axle connection style, spline count, and compressed length before ordering. This axle is listed for front right and front left applications, with updated-design and VIN-specific notes on certain Audi Q5 and SQ5 models. ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, and this unit does not include an ABS tone ring. Confirm whether the vehicle requires an axle nut separately, since it is not included.
