In this video, we fix a common failure point on the first-generation Cayenne: the driveshaft (or Cardan shaft) center bearing support. Instead of using an OEM part, which requires the removal of the driveshaft, we replace it with a two-piece part by European Parts Solution that allows the driveshaft to stay in place. As part of the repair, we repack the bearing with high-temp wheel bearing grease and replace a worn rubber flex disc.

I like it but it seems entirely dependent on the condition of the bearing and seals. Would it not be more appropriate to title the video: how to modify the driveshaft center support bearing on your etc…?

Shannon997S says:

My Cayenne turbo has a vibration at high speeds only when I give it a good amount of throttle, do you think this is the probable cause? Thanks!

Kose Lasalle says:

Got mine today and the damn thing doesnt fit around my 2004 porsche cayenne bearing. I grind on the part to see if it'll fit but still too small. Hope I get my money back. Yup I say never buy these things

jmattcarrasco says:

Vu, glad to see you doing some DIY maintenance on a Cayenne. I wrote you an email about the 958 Cayenne's transfer case and I look forward to a video on this item and whether or not this prone to failure part is in fact the Achilles heel of the 958 and as such buyer beware or if this is something that can be fixed for 100K's of miles without incident. Thank you.

The issue with this short cut repair is the "solution" costs more than doing it the conventional way even factoring in labor to remove the shaft . I had my shaft rebuilt for $200 as in my search I found several Porsche indy's that will either rebuild and balance or exchange your old shaft for a much more competitive price plus around $150 to re and re the shaft back in.

DJmixmo says:

No, No, No! This is a lazy man's approach which fails to address the equally worn out CV joints. Do it right and replace the whole cardan shaft. I found a reasonably priced aftermarket shaft on amazon.
