Volkswagen CV Shaft Replacement

CV Shaft Replacement for Volkswagen Vehicles

In your Volkswagen vehicle, the CV shaft plays a critical part in transferring power from the transmission to the wheels. 

Whether you're cruising on the highway or turning sharply through the city, the CV shafts help maintain a smooth, consistent drive.

They accommodate the suspension’s vertical movement and steering angles without sacrificing efficiency or comfort.

Common CV shaft problems in Volkswagen's

CV shafts in Volkswagen's are built tough but not indestructible. Some signs that may indicate it’s time for replacement include:

  • Clicking sounds when turning

  • Vibrations during acceleration

  • Visible grease around the wheels (caused by a torn CV boot)

  • Knocking noises during gear changes

  • Loss of drive or severe binding when moving

Prompt action can help prevent more expensive damage down the track.

How CV shaft replacement is done

A qualified technician will:

  • Safely lift your Volkswagen vehicle

  • Remove the affected wheel

  • Extract the faulty CV shaft

  • Install a new, high-quality CV shaft

  • Test the vehicle to ensure everything runs smoothly

Each step is performed carefully to maintain the performance and safety you expect from a Volkswagen.

Typical cost for Volkswagen CV shaft replacement

Replacing the CV shaft on a Volkswagen vehicle may cost between $430 and $800. Factors like the specific model, part availability, and workshop location can influence the final price.

For the most accurate price, it’s recommended to get quotes through AutoGuru’s network of trusted mechanics.

Why timely CV shaft repairs matter

Driving with a worn or damaged CV shaft can cause sudden vehicle control issues or even accidents. Protect your Volkswagen and its passengers by addressing CV problems as soon as symptoms arise.

Get quotes, read reviews and book trusted local steering and suspension specialists and get your Volkswagen operating as good as new.
