Frequently asked questions about drivetrain parts for Volkswagen Transporter
How do I know if I need a complete drive shaft or just a CV joint for my Transporter?
If only the outer joint is clicking when turning, but the shaft is otherwise straight and vibration-free, replacing just the joint is often sufficient. If, however, you experience vibrations under acceleration or if the shaft has corrosion damage, replacing the complete drive shaft is safer and often more cost-effective.
Does the same propeller shaft fit all Volkswagen Transporter 4MOTION models?
No, the propeller shaft varies depending on the vehicle's wheelbase (short or long), as well as the gearbox and model year. Always select your vehicle's make, model and engine to ensure the correct length and fitting.
What are the most common signs of a worn propeller shaft?
The most common symptoms are vibrations felt through the floor or seats, often at specific speeds, as well as noises such as thumping or whining coming from underneath the vehicle.
Why are there so many different drive shafts for the Volkswagen Transporter?
The Transporter has a wide range of engines (from 84 hp to over 200 hp) and gearboxes (manual, automatic, DSG). Each combination requires specific drive shaft dimensions to handle the power correctly.
Are your CV joints complete with CV boot and grease?
Yes, when you purchase an outer CV joint from us, it is supplied as a complete fitting kit including CV boot, grease, clips and any centre bolt or nut required.
Can I replace the drive shaft on my Transporter myself?
It is possible if you have good mechanical knowledge and the correct tools, such as a heavy-duty socket for the hub nut and tools to release the ball joint. However, we recommend following the workshop manual carefully.
How does a damaged ABS ring on the CV joint affect my van?
A cracked or damaged ABS ring sends incorrect signals to the vehicle's ECU, which can cause the ABS warning light to illuminate and result in brake pedal pulsation even during normal braking.
