all 6 CV joint bolts front passenger side were loose & one was completely off. The local mechanic has rarely ever seen this. I suspect that when I had the boots replaced 18 months ago (by another so-called Audi expert) the tech did not use lock-tite on the bolts (and my mechanic concurs). ESP fault and check engine light. Mass air flow sensor cleaned by local garage. Runs great and no issues after two days. Shop will verify codes for free if check engine light returns.
