Description
Maintain the uncompromised power delivery of your Bentley with the Genuine 4M0407271G Front Left Drive Shaft.
The front drive shaft (CV Axle) is responsible for transferring massive amounts of torque from the differential to the front wheels while allowing for full suspension travel and steering articulation. On a vehicle as heavy and powerful as the Bentayga, the internal CV joints are subject to extreme stress. The 4M0407271G is the factory-spec solution for replacing worn axles that cause "shaking" under acceleration or audible "popping" noises while cornering.

The Engineering Advantage: This genuine Bentley axle features heat-treated forged steel shafts and high-performance grease specifically formulated to withstand high-speed friction. Unlike generic aftermarket axles that can cause high-frequency vibrations at highway speeds, this OEM unit is balanced to Bentley’s exact NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) standards, ensuring your cabin remains as quiet as the day it left Crewe.
Tech Tip:
When installing the 4M0407271G drive shaft, always replace the outer hub bolt (Axle Bolt) as it is a single-use stretch bolt. For the inner flange, ensure the six triple-square bolts are torqued in a "star pattern" to prevent uneven seating.
