Porsche 987.2 Cayman 2.9ltr - 2009 to 2012
Diagram ref no 1
The rear axle drive shaft / CV axle assemblies are critical drivetrain components that connect the transmission (via the differential) to the rear wheels, allowing power to be transferred while also accommodating suspension movement. They are engineered to withstand regular driving forces, directional changes, and the dynamic loads associated with cornering and rear-wheel-drive dynamics of Porsche sports cars.
These CV axle assemblies transfer torque from the differential to the rear wheels to enable vehicle motion, while the constant velocity joints at both ends allow smooth power delivery during suspension travel and steering inputs. They ensure stable propulsion and help maintain proper handling balance. Without properly functioning drive shafts, issues such as vibration, clicking noises, or loss of drive can occur.
Drive shafts are subject to wear and tear from daily driving, cornering loads, and suspension movement. Over time, CV joints can wear, boots can split, or grease can leak, leading to joint degradation. Symptoms of a failing axle include clicking/popping during turns, vibrations under acceleration, or grease around the CV joint. Replacing worn or damaged axles with OE Match quality assemblies restores smooth power delivery, accurate wheel torque balance, and predictable handling.
Replace these drive shafts if you observe:
• Clicking or popping noises while turning
• Vibrations during acceleration
• Torn or leaking CV boots
• Loss of smooth torque delivery or drivetrain shudder

OEMatch Driveshafts & Parts — Fit, Function, Confidence
OEMatch supplies driveshafts and related parts for Porsche models, cataloguing thousands of part numbers and OE cross-references to support maintenance and restoration. Suitable for classic and modern Porsche applications, these components are selected for correct mounting and compatibility. Many owners search for genuine or OEM driveshafts; these are direct-fit alternatives designed to match the original form, fit and function.
Available Types- Complete driveshaft assemblies
- Universal (U) joints and CV joints
- Driveshaft couplings and flanges
- Boots, seals and retaining hardware
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original driveshafts and parts.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the driveshafts and parts and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM driveshafts and parts engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Driveshafts transfer torque from the gearbox or differential to the driven wheels while allowing for suspension movement and alignment changes. Balance and correct joint operation are essential to avoid vibration and preserve gearbox and differential bearings in Porsche drivetrains. Components such as CV joints, universal joints, boots and couplings all contribute to smooth power delivery and long service life.
Benefits Include- Restores smooth, vibration-free torque transfer
- Reduces noise and driveline shudder under load
- Helps prevent secondary gearbox and differential damage
- Wear to CV or universal joints from mileage and load
- Torn boots allowing grease loss and contamination
- Corrosion or impact damage to the shaft or flanges
- Imbalance from worn bearings, misalignment or damaged couplings
Replacing worn driveshafts or their components restores balance and reliable torque delivery, improving refinement and vehicle control for Porsche models. Scheduled inspection of joints, boots and couplings during clutch or transmission service helps avoid secondary failures. Many owners search for genuine or OEM driveshafts; these are direct-fit alternatives designed to match the original form, fit and function.
Advantages- Available as complete assemblies or individual service parts for targeted repair
- Made to original-spec dimensions to aid correct alignment and balance
- Includes the fixings and seals needed to complete a repair
