Detailed Description
TrakMotive AD-8126 is a front left CV axle shaft engineered for select 2006-2019 Audi and Volkswagen platforms, including 2006-2013 Audi A3, 2006-2017 Volkswagen GTI, 2010-2014 Volkswagen Golf, 2012-2013 Volkswagen Golf R, 2006-2008 and 2010 Volkswagen Passat, 2009-2010 Volkswagen CC, and 2007-2009 Volkswagen Eos. It also covers 2017 Golf Alltrack, 2017 Golf SportWagen, and 2018 Golf R and GTI, plus 2019 Jetta front left applications.
The AD-8126 uses a bolt-on inboard joint with six inboard shaft bolts and an Audi-style spline bolt outboard connection. The neoprene boot helps protect the joint area, while the 36-spline outboard design and 19.17-inch compressed length support proper fitment on the listed vehicles. This part cross-references Cardone New 66-7346 and Cardone Reman 60-7346 for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Clicking or popping during turns from a worn front left CV joint
- Vibration under acceleration caused by axle wear
- Grease leakage from a damaged CV boot
- Noise from a loose or failing driveline shaft
- Driveline service needs on Audi A3 and Volkswagen GTI, Golf, Passat, and related models
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify axle bolt thread size, spline count, and compressed length before installation. Confirm front left fitment against the vehicle’s build details, especially on models with ABS or non-ABS configurations, since ABS axles can fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted by the catalog. Inspect mating surfaces, hub condition, and inboard fastener threads during service.
Quality Assurance
TrakMotive identifies this axle as a new replacement part and notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certified company standards. The AD-8126 is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
