My 2001 Audi A6 Quattro, A/T has CV boot broken. I would like to replace the whole axle assembly.

Does any one know where to get cheap "DRIVER SIDE axle assembly"?

The "GKN Automotive (OEM) " brand costs about $350. That's too much for me.
The "CVN" brand costs $116. But the "CVN" brand seems not have the "DRIVER side axle assembly". It's very interesting that all the websites that, I have been searching for a whole day, come out the same error. That is, when I click the "front left" link, it comes out the "passenger side". The same as the "front right" axle. Does this mean that the DRIVE side axle is compatible with the PASSENGER side?

If anyone happen to know where to get the cheap one, please give me a link.

thanks

 

No personal experience, but I've heard lots of good things about http://www.raxles.com/. I'd probably start there if I was looking.

 

I replaced both outer boots 2 weeks ago.
You can replace just the outer CV boot if the joint is not making the telltale clicking noises when turning or accelerating. The inner joint & boot rarely fail. The link belowexplains : http://www.blauparts.com/audi/audi_a...oint_kit.shtml
The boot kit with boot, clamp, grease and a new axle bolt is a mere $17 from Blauparts: http://www.blauparts.com/proddetail....od=F4C1024%2DC
If you needa newouter CV joint as well as the boot it's $90 :
