    Is the shaft breaking in half, or something else?

    Just demolishing the CVs. I don't understand how a brand new shaft can only last 2 weeks!

    The one that lasted two weeks was aftermarket, I have never had a problem with aftermarket shafts but apparently talking to a couple people aftermarket is not what you want to use. The only problem is genuine ones are nearly $500 each from VW

    There is a place in Dandenong that does change over well priced. You take your old one and they give you a reco'd one.
