Here is another place (VertexAuto.com) that has them for $389 with a 1 year warranty. See: Porsche Cayenne Drive Shaft / Cardan Shaft

What are the steps to install shaft?

I'd be interested in knowing how to install the shaft. Thanks.

If you try to tackle it your self i could tell you the steps.

I'd suggest doing the Guibo joint while under there too...

Does it vibrate at the wheels, at the motor or at the cardan shaft?

no not the wheels, im not sure if its the motor or underneath the driver seat.. someone told me it might be the low gear but i doubt it .. it feels like the car is gonna turn off but then it goes back to normal..
its an 05 CS has about 90 k on it

Almost stalls? Is it missing? If so, then you're talking about coil plugs.

Had mine done last fall. It seemed to have rougher shifts and there was some vibration when stopped on inclines. Replaced the Cardan shaft (2005) under CPO.

However, once it was done, the SUV carved corners like never before. She seemed more amenable to stearing by fine throttle inputs and drove more like a sports car.

Sounds the same as mine when the cardan shaft needed replacing.
