Interesting read. Horrid being plagued with niggles like this. Fingers crossed you’ve nailed it. (I had money on it being a flat spot on a rear rim.)

Thanks John.
Yeah it's been a royal PITA but not as bad as some problems people on here encounter. I'll keep plugging away. Steve

Hi. I've been trawling the web for a replacement prop shaft as the bloomin' vibration, tho much reduced is still perceptible. I've found this https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzei...4132-223-23510 on German Ebay and it looks to be just the ticket.
My problem is I don't seem able to log in to contact them over shipping to UK etc. Being a bit of an internet dinosaur I'd appreciate any pointers. Cheers Steve.

Hi and thanks for your reply. Yes I realised a bit earlier that it had expired. I'll carry on searching and I'm sure one in good nick will turn up sooner or later.
Cheers

There's currently one on eBay (UK) selling for £149. Hard to tell the quality of it from the photos. Link to it as follows:

Hi and thanks. The vibration is MUCH reduced so the renewal of the centre bearing and joint have certainly had a positive effect. The smaller joint which cannot be replaced I'm told was still described as notchy. I can live with it in the short term as long as I keep my speed down under the threshold and patiently await a new-ish replacement. If push comes to shove I'll have to bite the bullet and buy a new one from Audi.
I've been considering the used one you've flagged up but I would need to inspect it before purchase and Kent is a long way from Lancs sadly. Thanks for your continued help and interest with this. Steve.
