Detailed Description

Cardone’s CV Axle Assembly line is engineered from testing and remanufacturing experience focused on the failure modes that commonly affect CV drive axles. For the Volkswagen Fox, part number 66-7011 uses precision-machined sealing surfaces, durable boot materials, and verified shaft runout control to support stable operation at speed. The included ABS ring helps maintain proper wheel speed signal function where equipped, while the bolt-on input and splined output design supports direct driveline replacement.

This part cross-references Volkswagen OE numbers 321407271AG, 3054072713, and 3054072714 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease leakage around the axle boot or chassis
• Vibration during acceleration or at road speed
• ABS warning light after axle replacement when the sensor ring is damaged or missing
• Grinding or wobble caused by a worn outer CV joint

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1987-1993 Volkswagen Fox, front left and front right. Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service, as this can damage the inner joint. Always replace the old prevailing-torque nut with the supplied new nut and tighten it with a torque wrench to the manufacturer specification. When replacing the axle, install new transaxle seals to help prevent leaks. If the ABS light remains on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.

Quality Assurance

Cardone designs and verifies CV drive axles to meet or exceed original equipment performance targets. Each shaft is inspected for straightness and runout control to support vibration-free operation across the vehicle speed range.
