Review on GSP NCV49500 Axle Assembly Front by Derrick Shah

Revainrating 1 out of 5

CV joint boot ripped and grease leak after only 5 months

Bought a pair of these replacement driveshafts for my Mini Cooper from 20.12.2017. Here it is 4/30/18 and I already have a driver's side liner with a tear in it and leaking corrugated grease. Yesterday my partner was driving the car home when it started pulling heavily to the left and shaking heavily at high speed. I jacked up the car to see what the problem was, expecting to find a bad tyre, tie rod end or ball joints, only to find that I had to replace the axle assembly in just 5 months. Furthermore it has only been 5 months since it was replaced, the Mini is not a great winter car so it has been in the garage for most of those 5 months and has only driven a few thousand miles in that time. I was hoping to just contact GSP through Revain but that's not an option that I can easily find by looking at my purchase or going to the GSP product page so I have to write a bad review hoping that I get someone's attention Today I will order a new axle assembly but from a different supplier.

Pros
  • All axles are carefully inspected for quality and workmanship and because we believe in the exceptional quality of our components every axle is backed by a limited lifetime warranty
Cons
  • old
