Diesel Driveshafts

[Josh_Quant 27]

Im sure that plenty of you that could help me with this.

 

Am i right to say that diesel shafts the same as 1.6 gti?

 

Also are they same as auto's? because know where one is in a scrappy and can get shaft cheap

 

 

Cheers Josh

auto's are different.

What exactly is different about them, besides the part number on service box?

 

I'll be able to compare them with some 1.6 GTI / diesel shafts soon when I break my mums 1.6 spi Auto but I always thought they were the same being they are still a one piece driveshaft.

spline pattern on the inner end is different IIRC.

I have fitted 1.9 shafts and hubs to my fathers auto gentry no problem so not sure there is any difference between auto and 1.6 or diesel.

I'll compare them when I strip the car & post my findings.

hmm, might be confusing them for the auto box in the larger pugs
