The outer CV spline was a touch too small and slipped/stripped under load. There is more than one size outer spline....ask me how I know.

Depends where it is loose. The joint could have failed

No, S4 Quattro is Torque sensitive. If it detects any axle slippage or it the axles give anywhere it wont let you move the car..
