Keep front-wheel power flowing smoothly with the TrakMotive CV Intermediate Shaft (KA-3517, also written KA3517). This new front intermediate shaft installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2017-2022 Kia Sportage — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the engine-level details on your vehicle. It bridges the transaxle and the outer front CV axle, transmitting rotational torque so the wheel keeps turning with the driveline.
Signs the original intermediate shaft may need replacing include vibration, clunking, or a rumbling noise from the front driveline. If a worn intermediate shaft is the cause of these symptoms, this replaces it — diagnose the source before ordering, since related axle or bearing components can produce similar signs.
