Yes, I just read all the post, it will fit but now I'm somewhat concerned about breaking the part due to the torque, alas I never drive this car like crazy anyway, but the other concern I have is that when I reviewed the CV axles of the Phaeton W12 and the Audi A8 W12 same year models I found differences in the overall length of both axles, Audi A8 seems to be about an inch longer for some inexplicable reason.
This stuff happens very often, just because of the brand name the part is 5 times more expensive, I have no problem paying it at all but it's ridiculous that the brand does this just because of the fancy name if after all is a VW part.

I can't tell you if it works or not, the thing is that i don't know the length of the Bentley original part, I know for a fact that the diameter is not the same, the original is about 3mm thicker than the aftermarket part.
