Rear drive shaft / CV axle - connects the rear differential to the rear wheel hub and supports torque delivery to the driven wheels.
Fits:
For cars with PDK transmission (dual clutch)

The rear drive shaft assembly is a critical drivetrain component that transfers torque from the rear differential to the rear wheel hub. It allows rotational power from the engine and transmission to drive the vehicle, all while accommodating suspension travel and wheel articulation.
Key functions include:
• Delivering engine torque to the wheels
• Supporting smooth power delivery under acceleration
• Accommodating suspension movement and road irregularities
• Helping maintain stability and traction under normal and dynamic driving conditions.
The constant velocity (CV) joints on each end allow for consistent rotation with minimal friction at varying angles, essential for modern independent suspension systems.
Replace the drive shaft if you notice:
• A clicking or popping noise when turning
• Shuddering or vibration under acceleration
• CV boot damage or grease leakage
• Excessive play in the axle or joint
• During differential, suspension, or major drivetrain service

The rear CV axle assembly transmits engine torque from the rear differential to the rear wheel hub, enabling the vehicle to accelerate and maintain traction. It incorporates constant-velocity (CV) joints that allow for smooth power delivery through suspension movement and varying road conditions.
Function: Installed between the transmission/differential output and the wheel hub, the driveshaft rotates to deliver torque while accommodating suspension travel and articulation. The CV joints at each end ensure consistent rotational speed and minimal vibration, helping maintain vehicle stability, traction, and handling precision.
• Sold As: Single axle assembly
• Qty Required: Typically 2 axles per vehicle (one left, one right) for complete rear replacement
A worn or damaged driveshaft can lead to:
• Vibration or shimmy during acceleration
• Clicking or popping noises in turns
• Grease leakage from CV boot failure
• Loss of smooth torque delivery.
Replacing a compromised axle with a Genuine Porsche assembly maintains proper torque distribution, drivetrain balance, and the refined driving experience Porsche engineers intended.
When to replace. Consider replacing this drive axle if you notice any of the following:
• Persistent vibration under load
• Loud noise from the rear under acceleration or braking
• Visible CV boot damage or grease loss
• Excessive play at the wheel or joint
• During differential, transmission, or rear suspension work

The rear CV axle transfers engine torque from the gearbox/differential to the rear wheels while accommodating suspension movement via constant-velocity (CV) joints. The OE Match version delivers smooth power transfer and reliable operation under everyday driving conditions.
Function: Installed between the differential output and the wheel hub, this shaft spins under load to deliver rotational force. CV joints at each end allow for suspension articulation without binding, ensuring consistent torque delivery through bumps, turns, and uneven road surfaces.
A worn or damaged CV axle can cause drivetrain vibration, clicking noises on cornering, loss of smooth power delivery, and accelerated joint wear. Fitting an OE Match driveshaft restores proper drivetrain balance and power transfer while eliminating noise and improving drive quality.
When to replace
Replace this axle if you notice:
• Clicking or popping noises when turning
• Vibration under acceleration
• Grease leakage around CV joints
• Excessive joint play or binding
• Damage from impact or corrosion

The rear drive shaft assembly:
• Transfers rotational power to the rear wheel
• Enables smooth torque delivery under dynamic driving loads
• Allows for independent suspension movement without vibration
• Helps maintain proper alignment of drivetrain geometry.
Using quality bearings, grease, and boot materials, this shaft is built to endure the combined effects of torque, speed, and road conditions while minimising noise, vibration, and premature wear.
The rear drive shaft is a critical drivetrain component. When worn or failing, symptoms may include:
• Clicking or popping noises during cornering
• Vibration or shuddering upon acceleration
• Visible grease leakage from cracked CV boots
• Play or looseness felt at wheel hubs.
A worn or damaged drive shaft can affect handling, accelerate wear on bearings and joints, and even lead to complete loss of drive force if not addressed. An drive shaft restores correct alignment and torque transfer, improving reliability and driving confidence.
Replace the drive shaft if:
• CV boots are cracked or leaking grease
• You hear CV joint noise during steering or acceleration
• Vibration is present under load
• Play is detected in the axle/hub during inspection
• You’re servicing the rear suspension or differential
