Replacement driveshaft.
Rear axle drive shafts (also called CV axle assemblies) are crucial drivetrain components that transfer engine torque from the differential to the rear wheels while accommodating suspension movement. They consist of a solid shaft with constant velocity (CV) joints at both ends, which allow smooth power delivery through changing angles and suspension travel.

Fits:
Porsche 986 Boxster 2.5ltr / 2.7ltr - 1999 to 2002
with 5- speed MANUAL CARS

Diagram ref no 1

These rear axle drive shafts transfer engine torque from the differential to the rear wheels, allowing the vehicle to move efficiently. Their constant-velocity joints accommodate suspension movement and articulation, ensuring smooth, consistent power delivery during acceleration and cornering. By maintaining balanced torque distribution between both sides, they help preserve stable, predictable handling. When axles wear or fail, symptoms such as vibration, clunking noises, uneven acceleration, or loss of drive can occur.

CV axle assemblies endure constant rotational forces and movement. Over time, CV boots can split, joints can wear, and grease can escape, leading to accelerated wear and eventual failure. A worn axle may present:
•  Clicking or popping sounds when turning
•  Vibrations under acceleration
•  Grease around the CV boot area
•  Clunking or loss of smooth power delivery.
Replacing worn or damaged axles with OE Match assemblies restores correct torque transfer, eliminates driveline noise and vibration, and helps maintain safe and predictable driving behaviour.

Consider replacing these axles if you notice:
•  Clicking/popping noises while cornering
•  Vibration at speed or under load
•  Torn or leaking CV boots
•  Loose feeling in the rear drivetrain
•  Preventive replacement during larger drivetrain or differential service

Replacement Driveshaft, for Tiptronic cars
Maintain smooth and dependable drivetrain performance with this OE Match Rear Driveshaft for Tiptronic Models, manufactured as a direct replacement. Produced to OE-style specifications, this rear driveshaft is specifically designed for Porsche models equipped with the Tiptronic automatic transmission, transferring engine torque from the transmission and differential to the driven rear wheel while accommodating normal suspension movement.

Fits:
Cars with Tiptronic transmission (option code: 249)
Porsche 986 Boxster 2.5L 1997 - 1999
Porsche 986 Boxster 2.7L 1999 - 2002

Diagram ref no 1

Over time, the original driveshaft can develop worn constant velocity (CV) joints, split protective boots, corrosion, or excessive wear from continual drivetrain loads and high mileage. These issues can cause vibration, knocking noises, grease leakage, and inconsistent power delivery. Replacing a worn or damaged driveshaft restores smooth drivetrain operation, improves driving refinement, and helps prevent unnecessary wear to surrounding drivetrain components. This OE Match rear driveshaft is ideal for routine maintenance, drivetrain repairs, and Porsche restoration projects.  

What This Product Does:
•  Transfers engine torque from the drivetrain to the rear wheel
•  Is designed specifically for Porsche Tiptronic transmission models
•  Accommodates suspension movement while maintaining smooth power delivery
•  Supports efficient and reliable drivetrain operation
•  Replaces worn, damaged, or noisy original driveshafts
•  Restores smooth acceleration and driving refinement
•  Provides an OE-style fit and dependable quality

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
•  Clicking or knocking noises during acceleration or turning
•  Vibration under acceleration or at road speed
•  Split or leaking CV joint boots
•  Grease leakage around the CV joints
•  Excessive play within the driveshaft assembly
•  Reduced drivetrain smoothness
•  Wear or damage identified during drivetrain servicing or restoration

Why Replacement Matters:
The rear driveshaft is an essential component of the Porsche drivetrain, transmitting engine power efficiently to the driven wheels while allowing the suspension to move through its full range of travel. On Tiptronic-equipped vehicles, maintaining smooth and reliable power transfer is particularly important for drivetrain refinement and driving comfort. A worn or damaged driveshaft can cause vibration, noise, reduced efficiency, and additional stress on CV joints, wheel bearings, and differential components.

Replacing a faulty rear driveshaft restores smooth power transmission, improves vehicle refinement, and helps maintain the reliability and performance expected from your Porsche. Manufactured as a direct replacement and produced to OE-style specifications, this OE Match Rear Driveshaft for Tiptronic Models provides the correct fit, dependable performance, and long-lasting durability, making it an excellent choice for Porsche maintenance, repairs, and restoration projects.
