Guys with Quattros need help here...what's a bad driveshaft CV sound like? Does it sound like...
a bad axle CV with clicking and such would or does it sound like a bad wheel bearing? The noise comes from the front & I've checked everything up front that I can & still have an odd slight grinding sound. I've replaced the front wheel bearings on both sides and I know the CV's are sound. The only thing I have not replaced if the brake pads on my Porsches...I'm running semi-metallic and will soon change to ceramic composite to see if the sound goes away.
I'm also wondering if I have warped rotors. They are Wildwoods.
I'm asking these questions before I drop big bucks.

Re: My bet is brakes. Does it go away if you're going slow and stab the brakes and quickly release?
The sound seems to dissipate a bit. At full stop or idling don't hear it at all.
