TrakMotive BM-8156 front left CV axle shaft for the 2014-2019 Mini Cooper carries engine torque from the transmission to the front left wheel. This TrakMotive CV axle has splined ends and flexes with suspension travel.
A worn CV axle can show up as clicking when turning, vibration under acceleration, or a torn boot with grease thrown around it. Before you replace the axle, rule out a worn wheel bearing, a loose wheel or an unbalanced tire, which can produce similar noise or vibration.
This is a direct-fit replacement for the 2014-2019 Mini Cooper, which takes one on the front left. This listing is one shaft; the front right shaft is a separate part, and the other side of that axle is normally done at the same time.
