  • Intermediate shaft 4x4

    Hi All,

    As much as I like driving my Insignia, I am becoming perplexed by the constant need for repairs and maintenance. I have to visit the workshop almost every two months. The latest problem is that the intermediate shaft (part number 2296 0217) needs to be replaced. A new part from the official representative would cost 2150 euros. I already did find a salvage part at 450 euros but it was bent in a crash.

    Please help, where can I find a used part?

    The car is

    - 2014 sports tourer
    - diesel automatic 4x4 CDTI

    The part that I need to find is
    - intermediate shaft (part number 2296 0217)

    As always, many thanks for your help.

      Hi again, going back to my earlier mail, I did indeed find a German manufacturer of propeller shafts. The replacement work took maybe 15 minutes.

      The car was, however, a constant money pit so I sold it off. Pity as I liked the driving feel and the looks. The car is excellent at longer drives and the seat is great.

      I now drive an Audi A4 3,0 tdi Allroad (272hp/600Nm). I hope this car will both last and push forward in snow. The torque is just amazing.

      Finally, I must say this is a most positive and supportive Forum. Lots of thanks for the help, advice and support to you all, in particular Marko. I still use my collector's item key holder from IDCUK.
