Where are you getting the axles from? Here in NJ, 99 nad up Audi/VW axles are hard to come by, I send them to a local rebuilder. I have had a few customers who go through axles every two weeks, because they forgot to mention to me they beat up on the clutch and street race.

How do you drive your car? If you're going through axles like that than either you beat the crap outta your car, the axles you're getting are crap, or you have something wrong with your tranny.

the axle's are easy to find at the right part store out here im in WA. I don't beat my car up either, it is my daily driver and i need it working! lol. My guess is that the car before i bought it was in an accident so there is something else causing it.

Yea, If you're not hard on the car, there has to be something else wrong. I drive my car pretty hard from time to time and my axles are in good shape. They are the originals with 55k miles on them now.
