For the DIY'ers, theres a place locally that refurbishes a driveshaft in exchange for your faulty one, I think they get $450 for one.

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.
I antecedently pulled this joint apart on my s when i was installing the struts. i hyper extended the joint and all the ***** fell out. I rebuilt it myself and took a hole day just to figure it out. the dealer just replaces the whole shaft. pretty easy to install the shaft, though. If you try to tackle it your self i could tell you the steps.

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..

i think its the coil plugs cause sometimes there is some missing, and it feels like the engine is shacking... is there a site i can get them online cause here in jordan its expensive at the dealer ship? and which ones are better to buy??

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.
