I'll probably just toss another cheap axle in and hope it lasts another 50k miles. Who knows, maybe it will even take care of the knock
Another task...to do the compatibility chart of P2 axles for M56 AT and AWd models....

It's a different part number for sure. I seem to think the number of splines is different on the transmission end.

Solved! Looks like IanRush was right! I replaced the drivers CV last weekend and now have driven about 500 miles with no knock at all. I've had CVs fail before but never like this. Oh well, if I have to stick a new $45 CV in every 40 or 50k miles that's not too bad. It also gave me a chance to fix my earlier mistake of using non-OEM output seals which have been slowly leaking since I did them. I put in some Cortico seals this time around and now it's all dry down there. Thanks for the help everyone!
