Frequently asked questions about propeller shafts for Volkswagen Transporter T5 2.0 Bitdi 4MOTION
How do I know if the propeller shaft fits my T5 2.0 Bitdi 4MOTION?
The easiest and most reliable method is to select your vehicle make, model and engine variant in our search selector. We will then filter out the propeller shafts that are precisely matched to your vehicle's wheelbase, gearbox and 4MOTION system.
What are the most common symptoms of a faulty propeller shaft?
The most common signs are body vibrations at speeds around 80-100 km/h, clunking noises when accelerating or engine braking, and grinding noises from a worn centre bearing.
Can I replace just the centre bearing instead of the complete propeller shaft?
Yes, on many Transporter T5 models it is possible to replace just the centre bearing. However, if the vibrations have persisted for some time, the universal joints may also have suffered damage, making it safer and more cost-effective to replace the complete shaft.
Why is propeller shaft balancing so important?
A propeller shaft rotates at very high speeds. If it is not perfectly balanced, vibrations will occur that are not only uncomfortable, but can also destroy bearings in both the gearbox and rear differential.
Is the propeller shaft different between short and long wheelbase T5 models?
Yes, the length of the prop shaft differs significantly between short and long wheelbase versions. It is therefore vital to verify your vehicle's specification before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
How quickly can my new propeller shaft be delivered?
We dispatch our stocked propeller shafts promptly across Europe, helping you keep downtime for your Volkswagen Transporter to an absolute minimum.
