Product Details

This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is engineered for Volkswagen front left applications where a replacement axle must match the original shaft length, spline count, and joint style. The VW-8016 part number is listed for 1990-1994 Volkswagen Passat, 1993-1998 Volkswagen Golf, 1993-1998 Volkswagen Jetta, 1995-2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, and 1996 Volkswagen Passat, plus select 1999 Golf and Jetta old body style configurations.

The TrakMotive CV axle shaft line focuses on replacement driveline components built to match OE-style fitment requirements. For Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Cabrio, and Passat front left service, VW-8016 provides the specified bolt-on inboard connection, conventional outboard joint, and included axle nut needed for a proper axle replacement.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or popping during turns caused by worn CV joints
• Vibration under acceleration from a damaged axle shaft
• Grease leakage from a torn or deteriorated CV boot
• Clunking or looseness from excessive driveline wear
• Loss of smooth power transfer to the front left wheel

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s year, body style, and notes before ordering, especially for 1999 Volkswagen Golf and Jetta old body style applications. Confirm the front left position, axle nut thread size, and inboard bolt-on connection match the original part. Because ABS axles can fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, review the vehicle’s brake and hub configuration before installation.
