Choosing the right used Hyundai i30 drive shaft
Used drive shafts vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
- State whether it's left or right
- State whether it's manual or automatic
- State if it's 2WD or 4WD

Fitment questions
Will a drive shaft from a 2014 Hyundai i30 fit my 2012 model?
Both years fall within the second-generation i30 (Mk2, 2012–2017, facelifted 2015), so they share the same basic platform, but whether the shaft physically interchanges depends first on matching the engine code, then confirming the gearbox type (manual or automatic) and which side you need (NS or OS). Confirm the specific part number against your registration with the breaker before buying.
Does a drive shaft from a pre-facelift i30 fit the post-facelift model?
The Mk2 i30 ran from 2012 to 2017 with a facelift in 2015, and while the underlying platform carried over, ancillary or mounting changes can occur across a facelift boundary even when the engine code matches. Name the boundary to your breaker — give them your exact engine code from the V5 and your registration — and let them confirm whether the pre- and post-2015 shafts interchange for your specific application.
Does the trim level matter — will a drive shaft from an i30 Classic fit one from an i30 Premium or SR?
Trim level does not affect drive shaft fitment on the i30; Classic, Active, SE, Premium, and SR are badge and equipment differences, not mechanical ones. What matters is the engine code, gearbox type, and which side (NS or OS) the shaft is from, so don't filter your search by trim — just make sure those mechanical details match.
Does a first-generation i30 drive shaft fit a second-generation car?
No — the first-generation i30 (Mk1, 2007–2012) and the second-generation (Mk2, 2012–2017) are on different platforms, so drive shafts are not interchangeable between them. Always specify which generation your car belongs to when contacting a breaker, along with the engine code from your V5.
I need to know if the engine code really matters or if any 1.6 petrol shaft will do?
Engine code matters above everything else — two i30s can both be described as '1.6 petrol' yet carry different engine codes with different output shafts, CV joint sizes, or spline counts. Pull the engine code from your V5 logbook or a VIN check and give it to the breaker; that single detail is far more reliable than displacement or fuel type alone.
Can I use a drive shaft from a Hyundai i30 on my Kia Cee'd of the same era?
The Mk1 i30 (2007–2012) and the equivalent-era Cee'd shared Hyundai-Kia Group architecture, so there is some parts commonality, but whether a specific drive shaft crosses over depends on matching engine codes, gearbox type, and side (NS or OS). This is exactly the kind of cross-model query to put to the breaker with both registration numbers, as spline counts and shaft lengths can differ even between closely related cars.
