New shaft just installed and she is smooth as silk again! Feels so good to drive her. Love this car.
We now have a better understanding of exactly what happened. I noticed as I was holding the shaft and my buddy was unbolting it from the trans that the oblonged part matched the shaft neck when it was in a downward position. Out of curiosity I started to let it down more and more until I saw that the ovaled part fit perfectly into the shaft. Knowing I had seen an impact mark on the forward CV before I looked closer and it appears more like a power tool slipped and just knicked it.
The actual damage (ovaling of CV) happened due to them unhooking the carrier but leaving the shaft connected to the car and rear and then using their lift they dropped the rear subframe down to near ground level and the shaft itself bent the CV. That or they just disconected it from the rear as well and let the shaft hang from the trans.

Couldn't figure out what people were going on about earlier so I had to temp remove him. I forgot to put him back on the list. I see his posts where he wants to start crap and I just bite because there is not a single person online I have ever known that is a bigger POS. Or in person for that matter. LOL
Thats small of me. I shouldn't get mad at special needs people.
Sorry.

Fried chicken? i only eat fish. If you were smart you'd know "I" could ruin you through Yelp/Google in about an afternoon or two, but you didnt want to take that advice and this is more fun.
TO THE MODS:
I wont shit on this guy all over the board, but i want this thread to make the hall of fame when we are reminding eachother to put our clocks forward next spring, and he is still trying to figure out if his driveshaft will fit in the hole.
Smooches Bill, glad to have brought you back. Dont be so shy, we are your brothers, those Audi guys dont know you like we know you! (gas station chicken sandwhiches, new chrome mirrors on 30 year old trucks, "ex dea agents" etc.
LDTTFMF!

The short ownership history and the fact that you have worked on the car yourself is going to work against you big time. Even if you get AoA to give a partial judgment in your favor, they're going to be a real motherfucker to deal with since you burned their ass with the BBB.
Just finish the fixes yourself and try to enjoy the car as much as possible.
You have convinced me that I will never own an Audi under any circumstances.
That being said the car will never see a dealer again and I am in the process of repairing it. Shaft arrives Friday and I will go in Saturday afternoon to install it, repair everything they did wrong and install the exhaust.
After that I should be able to enjoy the car for quite a while without issue unless I launch to hard too many times and blow the trans. LOL
