The drive shaft’s primary role is to transfer rotational power (torque) from the rear differential to the rear wheel hub. It works within the rear drivetrain to deliver engine power to the road, supporting acceleration, traction, stability, and overall vehicle dynamics. The CV joints within the shaft allow for power transmission even as the suspension articulates and road conditions change.

Function:
• Efficiently transmits engine torque to the rear wheel hub
• Accommodates suspension articulation and rear movement
• Maintains smooth, vibration-free power delivery
• Helps ensure consistent traction and stability under acceleration

The constant-velocity joints on each end allow the axle to operate effectively at varied angles without introducing noise, vibration, or harsh operating characteristics.

Drive shafts are essential components of the drive system. Over time and use, CV joints and boots can wear or fail due to constant torque, road shock, heat cycles, and environmental exposure. Symptoms of wear can include:
•  Clicking or clunking noises when cornering
•  Vibration during acceleration
•  Visible grease leakage from torn CV boots
•  Uneven power delivery or reduced traction.
Replacing a worn or damaged axle restores proper drivetrain behaviour, smooth power transfer, and reduces the risk of drivetrain damage that may arise from operating with compromised components.

Replace this drive shaft if:
•  CV joints or boots are damaged or leaking
•  There are audible noises under acceleration/turning
•  Vibration is felt through the vehicle floor under load
•  Inspection shows excessive play or wear in the axle

The CV axle assembly is a critical part of the vehicle’s drivetrain system. It transmits torque from the rear differential to the rear wheel hub, converting engine power into forward motion. The integrated constant-velocity joints ensure torque is delivered smoothly, even as the suspension moves and the axle operates at varying angles.

Function:
•  Transfers torque from the differential to the wheel hub
•  Allows smooth power delivery under acceleration and load
•  Accommodates suspension articulation and road surface changes
•  Maintains stable rotational motion with minimal vibration.

For Left Hand Drive (LHD)

On performance-focused sports cars such as the 997 Carrera, Boxster 987 and Cayman 987, the steering rack plays a vital role in road feedback, cornering stability and driver confidence—especially at higher speeds and during spirited driving.

What Does a Power Steering Rack Do?

The steering rack transfers movement from the steering column to the front wheels while hydraulic assistance helps reduce effort at the wheel.
This ensures:

• Smooth and accurate steering response
• Consistent feedback through corners
• Reduced driver fatigue during low-speed manoeuvres
• Predictable handling under load

A worn or failing rack compromises steering precision, safety and overall driving enjoyment.

Why Do Steering Racks Fail?

Over time, steering racks are exposed to high pressure, heat, road debris and vibration, leading to gradual wear. Common failure causes include:

• Internal seal degradation causing hydraulic fluid leaks
• Wear in the rack shaft and pinion gear
• Corrosion from moisture ingress
• Damage caused by contaminated power steering fluid

Typical symptoms of failure include:

• Heavy or inconsistent steering feel
• Power steering fluid leaks
• Knocking or play in the steering
• Steering pull or poor return to centre

Why Replace the Steering Rack?

Replacing a worn steering rack restores:

• Precise steering control
• Correct hydraulic assistance
• Safe and predictable handling
• Confidence at speed and during cornering

Ignoring steering rack issues can accelerate wear on related components such as track rods, pumps and suspension joints, increasing long-term repair costs.
