Audi A6 Ball Joints

A ball joint is what allows your Audi A6’s front wheels to move up and down while turning right and left. Ball joints provide a significant degree of freedom that allows the front wheels and suspension to respond to uneven road surface properly. But ball joints are fairly weak. They are susceptible to normal wear through shocks and vibrations that they constantly transmit. Having achieved a certain level of degradation, the worn-out ball stud and socket start playing and generating a knocking noise. This noise is the most obvious sign of a ball joint problem in your Audi A6.

Having noticed such knocks, don’t panic. There is still quite a lot of strength in the link and so you will be able to keep driving your car for quite a while. Still, the replacement is inevitable, and then, the knocks spoil the point of owning a luxurious car like your Audi A6. All that makes hesitations pretty unreasonable. Just like the overpriced genuine parts offered by Audi. Luckily, the aftermarket offers a wide range of replacements that provide the same or even higher level of function and durability that you have come to expect from the originals, while being offered at a fraction of the cost that the dealer would charge you.
