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.

Hyundai Matrix Maintenance 2020

This is new maintenance, in fact it's a follow up maintenance. Can't do all the maintenance in a single day. So it was follow up the following week.

Driver side power window has not been working for quite a while. Found the motor was faulty. The motor cost me RM260...not cheap but this is the 1st time replacing it...hopefully will last for another 10 years. And now all power window are working good.

Driver side drive shaft rubber shear off...spray out all the grease..passenger side drive shaft was ok. Had the CV rubber replace.

And there was engine oil leak, quite a strong leak. Tracing the leak lead to the driven cams. The oil seal has worn off...so 2pcs was replace.

This is after the camshaft driven oil seal replace, the bottom was cleans and I drove about 35km, so far so good.

Overall I''am  happy with the outcome...a few more maintenance to go..central lock, engine mounting and wind screen washer pump.

Coming to due would be the battery, touching 3 year soon
