Product Details

Cardone’s CV Axle Assembly line is engineered from extensive CV driveline testing and remanufacturing experience, with design choices aimed at addressing common failure points such as boot cracking, contamination, and shaft runout. Each shaft is individually verified for straightness to help reduce vibration at speed, and the transmission seal diameter is precision-machined after heat treatment to support proper sealing and long service life. Part number 66-7315 is a direct driveline replacement for Volkswagen Golf and Volkswagen Jetta front right applications listed above.

This part cross-references Volkswagen 1J0407272HD and 1J0407272KH for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during hard turns and acceleration
• Grease on the chassis or suspension from a ruptured outer boot
• Front-end vibration caused by axle runout or shaft imbalance
• Grinding or binding from a worn CV joint
• ABS warning light issues after axle replacement when the sensor ring is damaged

Installation Notes

• Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service; this can damage the inner joint.
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and tighten to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification.
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; install the supplied new spindle nut.
• Replace transaxle seals when servicing CV axle assemblies 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 verifies shafts for straightness and runout control before use in assembly, helping support vibration-free operation. The brand’s CV axle engineering focuses on correcting known failure causes in original units, including boot stress and seal-related wear.
