Drive Shaft (Front Left) / VW/Audi - 1.8T / Mk4 GTI / Mk1 TT

CARDONE's extensive experience in testing and engineering CV Drive Axles is the foundation behind our proprietary method of engineering a product that meets and even exceed O.E. performance. We have researched the reasons why original CVs typically fail and designed new solutions to avoid repeat failure. For example, our Neoprene boots are designed with additional bellows, when needed, to resist bellow stress and ozone cracking - the leading cause of boot failure. Additionally, all CV Drive Axle shafts are individually verified for straightness, resulting in vibration-free performance at all speeds

Features and Benefits: 

• 100% Neoprene boots are designed with additional bellows to resist bellow stress and ozone cracking, the leading cause of boot failure.
• A new axle nut is supplied with every unit for hassle-free installation, as the old nut on the vehicle is typically worn or stripped.
• Axle is measured 100% after assembly to ensure proper fit.
• Boot clamps are pneumatically crimped creating a perfect seal between the boot and housing.
• CARDONE Select Engineered (CSE) Technology ensures that all CV axles meet or exceed O.E. form, fit and function.
• High quality grease withstands high-temperature and high-torque demands to ensure long-lasting, reliable performance.
• Splines are precision rolled to ensure proper fit of axle into the mating hub and transmission, which eliminates installation hassles.
• Threads are precision rolled to ensure proper fit when axle nut is installed.
• Transmission seal diameter is precision-machined after heat treatment to ensure correct surface finish, promoting long seal life

CARDONE SELECT LIFETIME WARRANTY
CARDONE warrants that it will provide a free replacement for any CARDONE Select unit that fails or proves defective during normal use on the vehicle on which it was originally installed. 

CARDONE SELECT
The same reverse-engineering experience we’ve gained from over 45 years of remanufacturing is the foundation of Cardone Select Engineered (CSE) Technology. Since we’ve seen where – and why – original parts typically fail, our engineers incorporate improvements into our CARDONE Select new product designs. That’s why we can say CARDONE Select products are “built better from the start”.

CARDONE Industries, Inc., founded in 1970, is one of the leading supplier of automotive replacement parts with over 5,000 employees across the USA, Canada and Mexico.
