OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original cardan shaft / prop shaft.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the cardan shaft / prop shaft and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM cardan shaft / prop shaft engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.

The cardan shaft transmits torque from the gearbox to the differential, compensating for suspension movement and drivetrain alignment while maintaining rotational balance to minimise vibration and noise.

• Restores smooth torque delivery and drivetrain balance
• Reduces vibration and driveline noise under load
• Helps prevent secondary damage to gearbox and differential components

• Worn universal joints producing vibration, knock or lash
• Damaged or seized centre bearings causing imbalance
• Corrosion or impact damage bending the shaft or weakening couplings
• Degraded rubber couplings (guibos) or seals allowing movement or contamination
