Drive shaft OEM or Original


I had recently replace the RHS drive shaft  of my Elantra after discover it CVT cover had rapture and spraying the grease all over  and further more noise already developed while driving straight or during turning.

So, I have that drive shaft replace at a cost of RM420...yes the whole piece RHS. This would the 1st time the Elantra has it's drive shaft replace after 205,000km and 12 years ownership..not bad ..right! Is the drive shaft original..NOPE..it is OEM.

This is the replacement OEM RHS


This is the original  LHS


Notice different design of the CVT cover between the original and OEM




My Hyundai Matrix also had it's driveshaft replace with OEM, so far so good. Only once had the OEM driveshaft CVT cover replace. If you have the extra cash go for original or else settle with OEM.
