What brand of half shafts are generally used in Volkswagen cars?
1 Answers
Volkswagen cars generally use their own brand of matching half shafts. Introduction to half shafts: Automotive half shafts, also known as drive shafts, are the shafts that transmit torque between the gearbox reducer and the drive wheels, meaning they transfer the power from the gearbox to the wheels. There is a universal joint at each end of the shaft, commonly referred to as the inner CV joint and the outer CV joint. Causes of half shaft damage: The initial cause of half shaft damage is usually the rupture of the rubber dust covers on the inner and outer CV joints, which allows road debris and particles to enter the CV joint lubrication surface. At the same time, the lubricating oil inside the CV joint is completely thrown out, leading to dry grinding and damage of the inner and outer CV joint ball surfaces.
