  • 3 - constant velocity joint (interior), diameter 100 mm

For vehicles with an engine from 66 kW (90 hp) and all models from 10/93: with sealing gasket. Replace the joint only as an assembly.
Constant velocity joint (interior), diameter 94 mm For cars with 53/55 kW engine (72/75 hp) up to 9/93: without sealing gasket. Replace the joint only as an assembly.
  • 4 - disc spring

With splines at the small diameter. The large diameter is adjacent to the constant velocity joint.
  • 5 - corrugated hinge cover

Rubber version. Different cuffs for hinges with a diameter of 100 mm and 94 mm. The cover has a ventilation hole. Before putting on the cover, lubricate the protective cap with D3 sealant. Remove with a rod.
  • 6 - cardan shaft

Note: For vehicles with 53/55 kW engine (72/75 hp) up to 9/93 splines from the position of the disc spring to the groove for the retaining ring are 4 mm shorter than other models.



  • 7 — clamp

Always replace.
  • 8 - corrugated hinge cover

For constant velocity joints with an outer diameter of 90 mm, polystyrene version.

Note: Before tightening the small clamp, lift the cover slightly to equalize the pressure in the internal cavity.


Corrugated joint cover: for vehicles with 53/55 kW engine (72/75 hp) up to 9/93 outer diameter of the hinge 81 mm.
  • 9 — clamp

Always replace: Cut the closed metal ring with a hacksaw.
  • 10 - disc spring
  • 11 - spacer washer
  • 12 — retaining ring

Always replace: install in shaft groove.
  • 13 — constant velocity joint (outer), diameter 90 mm

For vehicles with an engine of 66 kW (90 hp) and more and all models from 10/93: replace only as a complete unit.

Constant velocity joint (outer), diameter 81mm: for cars with 53/55 kW engine (72/75 hp) up to 9/93.
  • 14 — constant velocity joint

(outer), diameter 90 mm For vehicles with 16-valve engine and VR6 engine since 10/93: increased spline diameter.
  • 15 — vibration damper

Up to 9/93: for left and right cardan shafts, from 10/93 only for the right shaft. In vehicles equipped with a turbocharged diesel engine, up to 9/93 is not available. With a 115 hp engine and all-wheel drive, it is installed only on the left cardan shaft.
  • 16 — clamp
  • 17 — support rings

They are installed only on the gearbox side and when using corrugated rubber covers.
  • 18 - corrugated hinge cover

  • 19 - protective cover

From 4/89 for vehicles with engines from 66 kW (90 hp).
  • 20 — bolt, 35 Nm

Standard cardan shafts for vehicles manufactured before 10/88 (chassis No.31KE081817)


In these vehicles, vibrations of the chassis are eliminated by means of fixed and movable dampers. Loose dampers are replaced with dampers of a new design (spare part # 357407294 A). If a loose damper has damaged the protective varnish, the entire cardan shaft is replaced. If the dampers are not yet loose, have been repositioned or are new, a clamp (arrow) must be installed as a stop on the wheel side next to the damper.

In these vehicles, vibrations of the chassis are eliminated by means of fixed and movable dampers.…


Cars with engines up to 66 kW (90 hp): dimension a = 28 mm;
Cars with engines with power greater than 66 kW (90 hp): dimension a = 5 mm.
