GKN Loebro 304550 is an OE-quality TPE CV joint boot kit built for exact-fit replacement on select Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q7, and Volkswagen Touareg applications. It is designed for front inner and front right inner positions where a damaged boot can quickly lead to joint contamination and driveline wear.

Key Features

• Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) boot for heat resistance in modern driveline applications
• Solid black boot design with one rib for a precise OE-style profile
• Joint end inside diameter: 2.704 in.
• Shaft end inside diameter: 1.122 in.
• Built for front inner and front right inner CV joint service
• GKN Loebro part number 304550 for direct reference

Detailed Description

This GKN Loebro CV joint boot kit is engineered around the fit and material requirements of the original driveline. TPE construction is important on high-torque vehicles because it handles elevated joint temperatures better than many conventional boot materials. For Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q7, and Volkswagen Touareg driveline service, the correct boot profile helps maintain sealing at the joint and shaft ends while preserving the intended articulation of the CV joint. Part number 304550 is the reference to use when matching the replacement boot to the original application.

This part cross-references 7L0498201 and 95534990300 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Torn CV boot material
• Slipped boot sealing at the joint or shaft
• Porous boot surfaces that allow grease loss and contamination
• Noise or vibration caused by CV joint contamination after boot failure
• Premature CV joint wear from loss of grease retention

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the original boot material before ordering; if the driveshaft uses a TPE boot, match it with the correct GKN replacement TPE boot kit. Verify joint end and shaft end dimensions, rib profile, and vehicle position before installation. This kit is listed for 2003-2018 Porsche Cayenne front inner, 2007-2012 Audi Q7 front right inner, and 2004-2017 Volkswagen Touareg front left inner or front right inner applications as shown in the fitment data. Professional installation is recommended for proper sealing and CV joint protection.
