August 17, 20169 yr Please, somebody help! My Baby Grumblewagon is shaking about like a toddlers head being force-fed cabbage... A genuine Subaru part is going to cost me £590!! So I'm looking for OEM but all the parts lists for places I've found only list the 2.0 S Turbo and the 2.5 XT. No mention of a 2.0 XT. The driveshafts for those models have a different number of teeth so I don't know which I need. My Google searches lead me to believe that the 2.0 XT has the same running gear as the 2.5 XT but I'm not certain. Can anyone confirm this or, even better, supply me with the correct Subaru part number or indeed a link to the correct OEM part...? Appreciate it
August 17, 20169 yr Sorry, your after a driveahaft or a pair of driveshafts? Front or rear ? Have a look on your vin plate for the gearbox code, that will tell you what type of box you have & corresponding ratios, then you'll be able to hunt round, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
August 17, 20169 yr 2.0xt & 2.5xt should be same, manual or auto box !? If after complete shaft OEM try eSubaru 020 8839 0777 and give them reg number or chassis number . OEM going be around £250 to £300 Decent OE quality pattern part around £160 to £190 .
August 17, 20169 yr Author Sorry, it's the offside front driveshaft for a manual transmission - TY755VN3AA And thanks guys. I'll keep hunting
August 18, 20169 yr shafts are not handed . Do believe auto/manual same but ideally need check that ... another option for axle shafts complete or just joints is J&R We used them for several years for Nissan & subaru shafts, mainly SF fozzy & legacy complete shafts in pair and quality is decent and cost very reasonable. prefer OEM for anyone on turbo models & doing high mileage & expected vehicle life warrants cost .

Cheers for this but I'm still confused. Are you recommending them or not, as mine is a turbo model (they don't state their parts are OEM after all...

We used esubaru quite a bit for fast OEM part sourcing at more sensible costing the subaru dealer network direct .
