Most cv joints are inside of the boots on each end of the halfshaft. Easy way and least expensive way is to replace the whole halfshaft on the side that you need to replace the cv joint.

That's okay if you're not on a tight budget.
Always support your car on a suitable stand when working underneath a car.
Tools: Various spanners, Allen keys, balljoint seperator (hard work if not), soft face hammer.
Time: 60-90 minutes.
Remove wheel, suspension arm bottom nut, toe link, hub nut.
Pull suspension arm out of the front hub you should then be able to pull the suspension leg away to allow the driveshaft through the hub (support it to avoid damaging the splines)
Remove the Allen keys from the gearbox and carefully slide the driveshaft out.
The CV end has circlips on both sides, remove these and the joint can be knocked off the shaft with a soft face hammer to avoid damage, they can be very stubborn so a vice is always handy.
Fitting is reverse but be careful not to damage any of the splines or introduce grit or grime, new boots, hub nut and new oil seals (if fitted) should always be used.
Correct torque settings and cleanliness are vital to avoid premature failure of parts.
To replace a CV boot on an Audi A6, first, lift the vehicle and remove the wheel to access the axle. Detach the axle from the hub and slide the CV joint out, then carefully remove the old boot and clean the joint. Apply fresh grease to the joint, slide on the new boot, and secure it with clamps. Finally, reassemble the axle, reconnect it to the hub, and reinstall the wheel.
