The oversize holes on the factory brackets are designed to allow several degrees of 'twist' on the centre bearing carrier, causing damaging long-term stresses on both the prop and centre bearing.

That may be great for lazy repair shops to shuffle the adjustment around, and no doubt helps the factory with quick production-line assembly, but will lead to accelerated wear from misalignment.

Every hard launch & shift provokes movement in the drivetrain - over time this risks shifting the factory prop mount out of alignment.

This simple alignment kit reduces the bolt hole size down from M14 to M8, allowing no further twist from the brackets and ensuring that your prop cannot move from this position.

Fit this Alignment Kit once, then drive it safe in the knowledge that your propshaft will remain in the correct alignment forever more. 

For all MQB & MQB Evo AWD models
