034Motorsport Driveshaft Center Support Bearing for Audi B6/B7 S4 and B7 RS4 V8 (2004–2009)

Built for the V8 cars, this 034Motorsport driveshaft center support is a replacement bearing support for the two-piece driveshaft in the B6 and B7 Audi S4 and the B7 RS4. Audi does not supply this support separately through the dealer, so 034Motorsport makes it in-house for this application. It uses a precision-stamped steel support with an OEM bearing. A center support holds the middle of a two-piece driveshaft and keeps the shaft steady and in line between the transmission and the rear axle. When this support fails on these cars, the usual signs are vibration at certain road speeds and loud noises from the driveshaft tunnel.

034Motorsport parts sold by PMB carry a 24-month warranty.

This support is specific to the S4 and RS4 V8 driveshaft, and it does not fit the Audi A4. 034Motorsport makes a separate center support for the A4, so the right part depends on the model rather than the year alone. No core return is required. The part is made in the United States at the 034Motorsport facility in Fremont, California, where the company handles engineering and manufacturing under one roof.

Installation & Tuning Notes

Replacing the support means removing the driveshaft and taking it apart, and the disassembly is involved. The center joint has a crimped boot. Pry the boot open carefully and hold it back while you release the hidden clip inside the joint. Freeing that clip usually takes two people and some patience. Once the two halves are apart, remove the locking c-clip on the bearing and press the support off. Assembly is the reverse of disassembly.
